3. Problems breathing or swallowing
Problems with swallowing food or breathing could be another sign that your child has neuroblastoma. Bear in mind that these symptoms could also be caused by other conditions such as asthma or even rabies. That said, whether or not neuroblastoma is the cause of these symptoms, it’s imperative that you get your children tested so that you can pinpoint the cause of the symptoms and administer and necessary treatment before the condition of your child worsens.
If the difficulty breathing occurs in episodes, it might be due to recurring respiratory infection. In contrast, if you find that the difficulty breathing is chronic, there is a higher chance that it is caused by neuroblastoma. Start by taking your kid to their pediatrician and seeing what they have to say about the symptoms. After that, you can visit a specialist to run some tests and see if there are any respiratory issues that your child is suffering from.
