Will a child with anemia get leukemia? What will happen if a child has anemia?

Usually anemia is a common symptom in children, and many parents know that children with leukemia will have anemia symptoms, so they worry that their children with anemia will get leukemia. So let's find out whether children with anemia will get leukemia? What will happen if children have anemia?

Children with anemia will not get leukemia, but leukemia can cause anemia in children. Anemia in children is mainly caused by lack of nutrients, which leads to a decrease in hemoglobin, manifested as pale face and lips, pale conjunctiva, pale nail bed, irritability and crying, low resistance and other symptoms. Leukemia is a very difficult disease to diagnose and treat, with a low cure rate. It refers to the abnormal proliferation of certain cells in the blood system, mainly due to damage and abnormality of bone marrow hematopoietic function. Most children with anemia are due to picky eating or intestinal absorption, which causes insufficient red blood cells. Children with anemia should promptly identify the cause and treat symptomatically to avoid greater harm caused by anemia.

Anemia may cause the following clinical symptoms: such as neurological symptoms, dizziness, insomnia, dreaming, tinnitus, memory loss, and lack of concentration. The child's skin may become paler or yellower. If the anemia is mild, it may not affect breathing. Worsening anemia may also affect the respiratory center, causing deeper and faster breathing. The circulatory system can cause the child's heart ischemia, lung ischemia, etc., and at this time there will be symptoms of hypoxia. The digestive system may cause poor absorption, indigestion, abdominal distension, loss of appetite, and changes in the regularity and characteristics of bowel movements. The urinary system causes a decrease in urine volume.

1. It can cause cellular immune function defects, resulting in poor resistance and susceptibility to illness;

2. It can cause a decrease in gastric acid secretion and poor fat absorption, which can weaken the baby's digestive ability;

3. It can reduce the oxygen uptake capacity of the blood, causing various organs and tissues of the body to suffer from varying degrees of hypoxia. When the baby moves a little, he will experience symptoms such as shortness of breath and accelerated heartbeat;

4. It will cause the baby's body to be in a state of hypoxia and muscles to be weak.

5. When the baby is anemic, the oxygen uptake capacity decreases, the brain tissue is deprived of oxygen, and the baby's memory and concentration will be affected.

6. Due to lack of oxygen and abnormal brain cell metabolism, babies often show temper tantrums, cry and become irritable.

Severe anemia will definitely affect immunity, because nutrients are transported to the whole body through the blood. If you are born with anemia, have you checked the cause at that time? Different situations are treated differently. For hemorrhagic anemia, just remove the bleeding focus and transfuse blood if necessary for symptomatic treatment. For non-hemorrhagic anemia, if there is hemolysis and erythropoiesis, you can take transfer factor, pidotimod, etc. orally if your immunity is reduced. You must be cured completely when you are sick, and do not stop taking the medicine on your own. Pay attention to adding or removing clothes, strengthening nutrition, and exercising appropriately, which are all conducive to the recovery of immunity. Pediatric anemia is the most common disease in children. Nutritional iron deficiency anemia has not been controlled so far, which is related to the awareness of the entire population. Secondly, it is also related to the publicity of nutritional iron deficiency anemia. No one pays attention to early iron supplementation treatment.
