2. An irritable child

is a sign your child has Kawasaki disease. Every time you ask them a question or to do something, the child will become irritated. It is your job to stay calm, even though, it will be difficult to do so. The child is irritated because they are in pain. They don’t know what to do about the pain that they’re having.

It’s important that the child stays calm because it’s not good for his or her heart. Parents should consider letting the child speak with a mental health counselor. The child may not want to, but it will help him or her a great deal. A lot of times children don’t want to talk to strangers if their parents are around. On the other hand, the child may want their parents in the therapy session with him or her. The more sessions the child attends, the less irritated they will be.
