SAN DIEGO - A San Ysidro mom is mourning her 11-year-son, after doctors say he died of a rare complication from a sinus infection.
Some three weeks ago, 11-year-old Ky'reion first complained of a headache. A few days later, the symptoms got worse.By the time he was brought to Rady Children's Hospital a week later, he had pain in his neck. Doctors told her the culprit was something that is usually not serious: a sinus infection. Ky’reion’s case was a rare exception.
Dr. Shweta Warner, Infectious Disease Physician at Kaiser Permanente, says the bacteria that affected Ky’reion, Streptococcus intermedius, rarely causes illnesses, but when it does, it can cause an abscess in the brain and liver.
