Can a healthy teen die suddenly in sleep?

Can a healthy teen (17) with no symptoms or signs die suddenly in sleep

Answered on 17th Mar '25

While it’s rare for teens without any symptoms to experience sudden death during sleep, underlying heart conditions or sleep disorders can sometimes lead to unexpected events. Common signs to watch for include unexplained fainting, chest pain, or severe fatigue. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle—regular exercise, balanced diet, and adequate sleep—can help minimize risks. It’s essential to schedule regular check-ups with a pediatrician for peace of mind and to discuss any concerns. Always prioritize professional guidance to ensure comprehensive understanding and support for well-being.

Hi. I've a question regarding my niece's skin problem. She is a 7-years old. She has developed red patches of skin on her cheek, chin and around nose. The affected area of her cheek is very dry. I brought her to a doctor who prescribed two creams, mezoderm(betamethasone) and gentamicin-akos which made things far worse. Then at the pharmacy I was advised to use ftorokart(also a cream with triamcinolone) for my niece's face. After a few uses of the cream, I've seen some noticeable improvement in her skin condition since she started to use it. It took the redness out of her nose. But she still has rash and blisters on her face. I took photos of her face in case it might be helpful for you to identify the reason for her skin condition. Here are the photos of hers: https://ibb.co/q9t8bSL https://ibb.co/Q8rqcr1 https://ibb.co/JppswZw https://ibb.co/Hd9LPkZ Would you mind helping us to identify what caused this skin condition?

It see­ms like your little one might have­ caught a cold. This causes the body to work hard, making the hands and fe­et feel cold. Howe­ver, we can help! Try massaging his hands and fe­et gently. Or, use warm socks to ke­ep them comfortable. Make sure­ he rests and stays snug.
