Hearing loss can often arise from various factors, including genetic conditions or complications during birth. While stem cell therapy is being explored for certain conditions, its effectiveness for hearing impairment is still under research and may not be a validated treatment option at this stage. It’s essential to consult  an ear specialist who can provide a comprehensive evaluation and recommend appropriate interventions, such as hearing aids or cochlear implants, tailored to your child's needs.

What does Trisomy 21 Age Risk 1:223 and Trisomy 21 Screening Risk 1:218 mean?

Female | 37

Down syndrome, also generally known as Trisomy 21, is a condition associated with an additional chromosome 21. and, results in some developmental differences. The ratios you mentioned are actually the chances that a test-based diagnosis of Down syndrome of this kind will prove to be real. On one hand, people sometimes may have specific features and varying symptoms such as developmental delays along with specific physical features, but a lot of them live meaningful lives if assistance is available and many lead scaffolding lives with themselves and among others. It's a good idea to report your findings to a healthcare provider who can offer you his own personal advisories and resources. The programs of the early period of intervention can so much develop and improve one's life, that along with the doctor's consultation, you can think whether the doctor's suggestions you doctor-visit or some other method better for your child are.

Where can I show my autistic grandson.

Male | 10 years

Depends on which city you are located.You can consult a clinical psychologist. But as you have already mentioned he is autistic. That means he's already being diagnosed. Now you need to look at the intervention that he needs to be getting into. You must Connect with the multi disciplinary clinic where he would be able to get speech special education and counseling all under one roof. You may contact me as well for further advice.As I have dealt with special children for more than a decade.

I advise you to take your child to a doctor. Based on proper evaluation and diagnosis, the doctor will be able to determine whether the problem faced is due some underlying medical issue such as food intolerance, infection  or some other reason. Based on that, treatment may be suggested which may include certain dietary and lifestyle changes, medications etc.

Female | 4

Your daughter's low sugar le­vels are concerning. Kids rare­ly have low blood sugar without diabetes. Symptoms like­ tiredness, dizziness, shakine­ss, or unconsciousness occur. Not eating enough or having anothe­r condition causes it. Doctors running tests is wise. Me­anwhile, regular meals and snacks stabilize­ sugar levels.

Hi doctor my one year baby boy passed hard stools today 5 times what would be the reason. But he is active and playing but he has a running nose and cold... Please advise as I am worried.

Female | 30

Your baby's tummy issue­s with the cold aren't surprising. Colds produce mucus, and harde­ning stools are normal. Keep them hydrate­d: offer liquids, pears, and prunes to e­ase bowels. Monitor symptoms closely; if conce­rned, consult experts promptly.

My daughter is 4 years old, she had pneumonia when she was one year old, that time admitted in khatav hospital, still daily going to hospital after that she is having the same cough and infection. Every time she had fever, there was no difference. All x-rays and tests were normal.

Female | 4

It sounds concerning that your daughter is still experiencing persistent cough and infections despite previous treatment for pneumonia. It's important to consult a pediatric pulmonologist. They can assess her symptoms thoroughly, consider other possible causes, and recommend appropriate treatment to manage her condition effectively. Early intervention and proper management are crucial for her health and well-being.

You may be dealing with an E. coli infection. Symptoms could be stomach cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting. This medication plan with Tabs-Ciprofloxacin and Ceftriaxone is a valuable choice to treat the E. coli bacteria. If you're breastfeeding a one-year-old child, it's indispensable to talk to your doctor about the safety of these medicines during breastfeeding.
