What can be done to prevent the condition?

Avoiding people with infections may reduce the risk of irritability due to these causes. Many cases cannot be prevented.

What are the long-term effects of the condition?

If an infection is causing the child's irritability, antibiotics may cure the infection and there are usually no long-term effects. A child with cancer may need lifelong treatment.

What are the risks to others?

Irritability itself is not contagious. If an infection is the cause, the infection may be contagious.
