Mrs Hinch son suffers potentially serious Kawasaki disease - what are early symptoms

Online cleaning expert Mrs Hinch has posted on social media about her ‘nightmare’ after son Ronnie was taken to hospital suffering from soaring temperatures. The three year old went downhill after arriving, the TV star whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe evealed.

In a recent Instagram post, the mum-of-two shared: “Ron’s temp spiked 40 at home, I phoned an ambulance. Ron was admitted and IV antibiotics started but NOTHING was working, in fact Ronnie deteriorated. The incredible doctors and nurses started every blood test and scan you can imagine.” Her trauma at hospital involved Ronnie undergoing multiple tests - eventually being diagnosed with Kawasaki disease.

This is a potentially serious illness if not treated in hospital - and in a small number of cases can prove fatal. If the child is less than one year old it’s very important to seek immediate treatment.
