Why is my 3-year-old foaming while sleeping?
foaming while sleeping for my 3 year old
General Physician
Answered on 1st July '24
Foaming during slumber for a 3-year-old could stem from excess drooling. This occurrence is typical as teeth develop. At times, it may resemble foam. It doesn't usually signify a severe issue. Ensuring your child's head is slightly elevated while resting might alleviate the situation. Additionally, utilizing a soft pillowcase may absorb the drool. However, if your child exhibits breathing difficulties or persistent coughing, seeking medical attention is advisable.

My 4 year old has had a stomach flu since Saturday, she was vomiting up until Monday night and has had barely appetite, she is very thirsty even though she stopped vomiting and has been drinking a lot of pedialite and water, no vomiting or diarrhea since Monday night… why is she still so thirsty?????
Female | 4
When someone has stomach flu, their body loses lots of fluids. Even though vomiting ceased, her body might still be trying to regain lost fluids, causing increased thirst. Continue providing Pedialyte and water to help her rehydrate. If she doesn't improve or struggles keeping fluids down, contact a pediatrician.

My one month daughter struggles with constipation and reflux and but constantly groans and moans all the time. Even when she's sleeping she constantly brings her feet up and moves around. She also cries a lot like she's in a lot of discomfort. Her moaning is persistent and if she goes quiet she squeaks really loud like she's struggling to breath.
Female | 1 month
When a baby moans and groans, it could indicate gastroesophageal reflux. This condition involves stomach contents traveling up the esophagus. You may notice crying, struggling to breathe, and general discomfort. Consult your pediatrician regarding potential treatments.

6 days old baby girl having loose motion 3 times a day can we give sporlac banana flavour powder
Female | 6 days e
Sometimes, babies pass loose stools often. Don't worry, this happens. If your newborn girl has diarrhea thrice daily, an infection or diet change could cause it. Sporlac banana powder may help. It restores good tummy bacteria, and firms up motions. Keep her hydrated - offer breast milk or small water sips frequently. Don't give any other medicine without a doctor's advice. But if diarrhea worsens or continues, see a pediatrician.

My baby head is measuring two weeks smaller. The Dr said it's normal
Female | 32
Don't panic if your baby's head measures a bit smaller. It sometimes happens, and often it's no big deal. No symptoms might even appear. One possible reason could be the baby's position. Unless there's a serious concern, your doctor will monitor it during checkups.

పురుషుడు | 0
Jaundice in babies can occur when their liver is not working properly. This makes their skin and eyes turn yellow. Sometimes it may cause serious liver failure. You need to take your baby to a hepatologist for proper treatment. The physician may prescribe drugs, suggest changes in diet, or severe cases recommend liver transplantation. Ensure you adhere to what the doctor tells you to help your child feel better.

Male | 1.5
If you're concerned about your 1.5 year old son's genital development, it's essential to consult a pediatrician or pediatric urologist for an evaluation. Small or retracting testicles may be normal in some cases, but it's crucial to rule out conditions like undescended testicles or hernias.

He's breathing through his mouth while sleeping. His eosinophil count is also high. These can point to asthma or allergies. Kids with these conditions often struggle to breathe well. Working closely with a pulmonologist is key. They'll figure out the right meds or strategies to manage allergies.

Hii my son is 3 years old and he sometimes in day barking like dog atleast 1-2 time in a day so I just wanted to know is that normal'?
Male | 3
Children don't usually bark like dogs. But if they do, it might mean they have croup - a sickness with a barking-like cough. They could also have a runny nose or hoarse voice. When the airways swell, this happens. Giving warm drinks and using a cool mist humidifier helps. But talk to your kid's doctor if it keeps going.

is there a problem if u take GENALBEN while taking Finallerg syrup for children
Female | 7
Taking different medicines together requires caution to prevent issues. Genalben and Finallerg syrup serve distinct purposes. While Genalben addresses certain health conditions, Finallerg syrup treats allergies. Combining them may lead to side effects such as dizziness, confusion, or upset stomach. To ensure safety, it's crucial to consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting any new medication or modifying existing ones.

My baby girl is of 2 months and i want to change the milk i want to leave the formula milk and want to start a cow milk can i do this .is there any side effect of this or not
Female | 0
At 2 months, babies should be given formula milk as their main drink. Cow’s milk lacks important nutrients needed at this stage and can cause issues like indigestion, anemia, or allergies. Stick with formula milk until your baby is about 1 year old. Please talk to your pediatrician for more guidance.

Calamine lotion is usually harmless if consumed in small quantities. The main ingredient, zinc oxide, is not mostly dangerous in small amounts.

Female | 2
Your daughter has a 12 mm opening in the wall between the upper chambers of her heart. This opening makes her feel exhausted, lose appetite, and get sick frequently. The opening typically needs closing when she turns 3 to 5 years old. Closing may involve inserting a device or undergoing surgery. Speaking with a heart specialist can help determine the ideal approach for your child.

Your daughter's fever, rash, throat pain, cough, and headache suggest a viral illness, possibly influenza. Dehydration causes yellow urine. Ensure she consumes ample fluids and rests well. Administer fever-reducing medicines if necessary. However, seek medical evaluation if symptoms worsen or don't improve, as viruses can sometimes lead to complications.
