My brother is 8 years old and he is 25 kg. He take 10mg Loratadine everyday and it has been 8 days since he started taking it. Today he accidentally took 20 mg. First time he took it was 3 hours ago and second time was 40 minutes ago. What can we do? Is it dangerous? We don’t have availability for doctor right now.
Male | 8
Accidentally taking a higher dose of Loratadine can cause symptoms like drowsiness, headache, or fast heartbeat, especially in children. Since your brother took 20 mg instead of 10 mg, it's important to monitor him closely for any unusual symptoms. Try to keep him calm and hydrated. If you notice severe symptoms or you're concerned, please seek immediate medical advice from a pediatrician or visit the nearest hospital for evaluation and guidance.

Hello my baby is 7 months old n has a stuffy nose also has gur gur sound while breathing through nose. What could be the problem? What is the solution?
Male | 7 months
Your baby probably has a common cold or a viral infection. The stuffy nose and sound while breathing could be due to congestion. Make sure to hydrate your baby sufficiently and then use a bulb syringe to suck out the mucus. Alternatively, you may run a humidifier to help loosen congestion. Be vigilant regarding your baby's temperature, and if you observe any symptoms of a fever or difficulty breathing, consult a pediatrician.

Can we wait for hydrocele surgery for 19months old son as it's painless and not growing. It will be difficult to manage him post surgery as he is non verbal. Also we think it may resolve on its own.
Male | 19months
Hydrocele is when fluid accumulates around the testicle and produce swelling in the scrotum. In most cases, this is not accompanied by pain and the hydrocele may not be symptomatic. Sometimes, hydroceles can resolve on their own without treatment. Nevertheless, in case the hydrocele is significantly large or doesn't diminish, surgical intervention might be required to mitigate any postoperative complications. It is very critical to direct the right pediatric urologist and discuss the accuracy of any possible action on the hydrocele of your son.

We are giving medicine from last four 4 years from qualified doctors of pakistan dr noreen akhtar but the child swelled when she leaves the medicine for a month.
Female | 10
Swelling after stopping medicine could show edema, a condition where fluid builds up. This happens because the body adjusts to medicine, then responds when it's removed suddenly. Many reasons like heart or kidney problems can cause edema. Doctors slowly reduce doses to avoid reactions like swelling. It's crucial to talk with your doctor about this concern.

My toddler has severe food allergies. How can I ensure he gets a balanced diet while avoiding allergens, and what are some safe, nutritious alternatives?
Female | 33
A diet that is complete and free from allergens is essential. Milk, eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish are the most commonly found allergens. It is important to search for other alternatives that are safe and nutritious, such as fruit, vegetables, rice, quinoa, beans, and meats. A dietitian can support you in developing a customized meal plan to make sure your child gets all the necessary nutrients. It is also necessary to monitor the symptoms of rashes, stomachache, vomiting, and shortness of breath that might appear after consuming food. If you recognize any of these symptoms, the advice is to stop feeding them that food and to contact an allergist for further testing and evaluation.

My 2 years old son is diagnosed with autism. He doesn't speak a single word. He has a poor eye contact. He doesn't understand what we say to him. However he responds to us. Will he be mentally disabled? Or will improve in future?
Female | 40
Children with autism may have delayed speech development, often avoid eye contact, and struggle with comprehension. Not speaking by age 2 could be a warning sign. However, this doesn't mean they will have a lifelong disability. Early intervention, like speech and behavior therapy, can significantly improve their condition.

A 1-year-old might have watery stools for various reasons. It's unlikely related to birth control. It could be a stomach bug or something they ate. Watch for signs of dehydration: dry mouth, no tears when crying. Give your baby more fluids. If watery stools persist, consult your child's pediatrician.

My baby girl has whitish uvula this is confusing me is it normal in Newborn kindly help me with it
Female | 1.5 months
A whitish uvula in newborns is perfectly normal, which is the small dangly thing that hangs in the back of the throat. This can be caused by the buildup of milk or mucus. If your baby is not having any issues with breathing or feeding, then there is usually no reason to worry. Simply after it. If your baby is having trouble breathing or feeding, get in touch with a pediatrician.
