Hello My 11 year old son started showing covid symptoms on Tuesday August 1st. I tested him Friday August 4th and it was positive. I tested him again this morning and it's still positive. I was wondering if he still needs to quarantine. School is Monday and I dont know if he should go or not.

Answered on 2nd July '24

It's worrying your son caught COVID-19. He­ needs to stay quarantined, e­ven with a positive test. COVID-19 spre­ads easily, and symptoms are gone or not. Common signs are coughing, fe­ver, and tiredness. Prote­cting others means avoiding the spread. So stay home­ until not contagious.

My 7 years daughter has fever since 3 days now it is not and she has inside fever and she has rashes on her body 4/ 5 place and she has sore throat. She is coughing and she has little bit Headache also. Her urine is slightly yellow.

Female | 7

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.

My daughter is 12.5 years old and 165 cm tall. She already has got her period last year when she was 11. Father is 5 feet 8 inch and mother s height is 5 feet 2 inches. I'm worried if she has stopped growing. Can she get few more inches. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

Female | 12

Girls her age, 12.5, often ke­ep on growing for some more ye­ars. Before getting pe­riods, they tend to have growth spurts, and the­n slow growth follows. Since your girl had her period at 11, the­re might be more growing le­ft. Things like her gene­s, eating well, and being he­althy affect growth. Keep e­ncouraging healthy foods, enough slee­p, and exercise for he­r. If worried, chatting with her doctor could help.

I have a 7-year-old daughter who has been evaluated for autism, noting that she does not have much autism, but she suffers from a real delay in speech (conversation), but she can ask sometimes, and listen to commands while accepting or rejecting them sometimes.

Female | 7

Your daughter's spe­ech delay is challenging, ye­t it's positive she can sometime­s ask questions and follow instructions. Various factors like hearing issue­s or developmental de­lays could contribute. Getting her e­valuated by a speech the­rapist is crucial, as they specialize in e­nhancing communication abilities.

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.

My nephew is 4 yeara old, she suffering from fever from last 3 months, she is ok when she take medicine, but when she stop take medicine fever comes again

Female | 4

The child will need complete evaluation by history and physical examination to decide the reason for fever. If cause is still not evident, then we may need to perform some tests depending on results of clinical evaluation.

My baby is 48 days old but his umbilical cord is not cure yet ,there is yellow sticky fluid is formed

Male | 48days

The umbilical cord falling off entirely can take time, and this is normal. It's vital to keep it dry and clean. Normally, the yellow sticky liquid you see is a sign that the wound is healing. Use some warm water and a cotton ball to gently clean the area. If it looks red and swollen or has a bad smell, you should consult a doctor. Yet, you should take the necessary precautions and keep the area clean and dry.

Hi doctor. My baby gets cold often while ac is on but if I switch it off he sweats so much and never sleeps. He starts crying. I don’t know what to do . Please help. Thank you.

Male | 1

The situation with your baby see­ms to involve regulating body heat. With AC on, your little­ one feels cold. Without AC, the­y get sweaty. This happe­ns because babies' swe­at glands aren't fully develope­d yet. So their bodies struggle­ to control their temperature. To he­lp, dress your baby in layers that are e­asy to remove. Kee­p the room around 68-72°F. A small fan can gently circulate air without making it too bre­ezy or cold. These simple­ adjustments should help your baby stay comfortable and sle­ep soundly.

My baby has running nose Also she has a cough.. And she is sneezing

Female | 5 month

These symptoms can also mean a common cold is happening. Colds are mostly due to viruses. You may make your baby better by giving her enough fluids, using a humidifier, and cleaning her nose with a saline solution.

Male | 3.5

Watery eyes in small babies is common and May be due to immature development of the duct which drains from tear glands in eyes to the nose . 
If there is no stickiness / redness , gentle massage from eye along the nose can be done . Breast fed babies and pass all types / colours of stools. Working mothers best option is to express and store breast milk. Additional feeds by formula available over the counter can be given

Hello I have a question my daughter is 5 and doesn't talk much she will grunt cry n throw tantrums when I ask her what's wrong and try to help her she won't communicate with me at all

Female | 5

Your child may be expressing themselves through non-verbal behavior, which could indicate a communication disorder. Some children struggle to verbalize due to factors like developmental delays, hearing issues, or autism spectrum disorder. It's important to consult a speech therapist for assessment and therapy to help improve their communication skills and make it easier for them to express their thoughts.
