The second case is patient N.Q.C. (14 years old) who was admitted to the hospital with a head injury and a wound on his lip. After being treated for the wound, the patient was discharged from the hospital.
The third case is patient L.N.M.D. (14 years old), who felt tired after jogging and was admitted to the emergency room. Here, doctors diagnosed the patient with electrolyte disturbance, then administered intravenous fluids and discharged him.
Specialist II Doctor Dieu Ha Lam - Head of the Emergency Department of Le Van Thinh Hospital - said that when letting children participate in community running competitions, in addition to close monitoring, it is necessary to pay attention to the child's physical strength. If children are not used to sports, it is very easy to have an accident while participating in running.
