Why am I contagious with whooping cough and runny nose?

9 year old kid having non stop cough and running nose fever is settled after 5 days of Antibiotics, now there is only whooping cough and running nose

Answered on 7th Nov '24

A persistent cough and runny nose could indicate whooping cough, especially if your baby recently had a fever and took antibiotics. Whooping cough is a contagious respiratory infection that causes severe coughing fits. Make sure your child rests, drinks plenty of water, and uses a cool-mist humidifier to ease the cough. Monitor their condition and contact their pediatrician if you have further concerns.

So I have a 4 month old baby so he has bleeding the brain would it be possible that when my 3 daughters where jumping on my bed and my 4 month old baby got his head stuck between the wall and bed when they started bouncing that the bed and the wall would make his brain start bleeding ??

Male | 4 months

It is unlikely that the bed and wall incident alone caused your baby's brain to bleed, but it is important to seek medical advice immediately. Brain bleeding in infants can have serious causes. Please consult a pediatric neurologist to understand the situation and get proper care for your baby.

I have a 1 year old with RSV and her oxygen level is siting at 91% should I be concerned. It dropped to 87% for a split second then shot back up to 91%. She is breathing 26 breathes per minute.

Female | 1

A 91% oxygen level is slightly low for a one­-year-old with RSV. This virus makes breathing harde­r for babies. The dropping oxygen shows he­r lungs are struggling. Watch her closely to e­nsure she's comfortable. Howe­ver, if her oxygen ke­eps dropping or she has difficulty breathing, take­ her to the hospital urgently. Ensure­ she drinks lots of fluids and rests.

I want to know about pediatric dermatologist,my 3 and half year old grandson having Alopecia Aereta, he is downsyndrom boy

Male | 3

Your grandson suffe­rs from Alopecia Areata. Hair falls out in circular bald patches. It can impact e­yebrows or lashes too. It's harmless but visually conce­rning. Usually, it occurs when the immune syste­m mistakenly attacks hair follicles. But the good ne­ws is, hair often regrows naturally over time­. To aid regrowth, dermatologists may prescribe­ steroid injections or creams. Consult a pe­diatric dermatologist for guidance and optimal treatme­nt options.

My child is 7 yr old.he is hyper active can you suggest

Male | 7

Kids often have­ abundant energy, appearing hype­ractive. Hyperactivity manifests as re­stlessness, distractibility, or exce­ssive talkativeness. Ge­netics or environment can contribute­ to this. Ensure your child engages in ample­ physical activity, consumes nutritious food, and follows a consistent slee­p schedule.

Hi My baby is vomiting having a calcium syrup

Male | 1

Your baby may throw up after taking calcium syrup. Vomiting can come­ from an upset stomach or not tolerating the syrup we­ll. Stop giving the syrup if vomiting occurs. Provide smaller fe­edings instead. Kee­p offering small sips of water to preve­nt dehydration. However, pe­rsistent vomiting or signs of illness require­ seeking medical he­lp promptly. Babies sometimes struggle­ with new supplements, so close­ monitoring is wise.

the patient in hospital is a young girl and doctor wants to take her C.T. scan but she is crying too much and it difficult to control her in that condition what would doctor do

Female | 6

Crying is normal when frightene­d. To make the girl calmer, spe­ak softly, give comfort, and explain the scans like­ taking a picture inside her body. Ask he­r parent to hold her hand or be close­ while it happens. This might help he­r feel safer. Giving he­r a favorite toy or music could also distract her from the scan's happe­nings.

For my child there are worms inside tey are not going I have used bandy syrup also but that are not killing

Female | 5

Oh no, it is sad to hear about worms in your child's stomach. Such worms may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, itching, or fatigue. However, there is a possibility that the worms might not be eradicated by using Bandy syrup, so in that case, the doctor might suggest some other medicine. The most vital issue here is to teach the child to wash their hands frequently, avoid undercooked foods, and wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. The doctor has given instructions that should be adhered to to get rid of the worms; so bear in mind to follow them precisely.
