Answered on 1st July '24
A handheld water toy's water shouldn't cause major concern for your son. A little tummy trouble or loose stools may occur - nothing serious. Ensure he drinks plenty of clean water and eats plain foods. However, if severe symptoms arise, like vomiting or fever, consult a pediatrician immediately. For now, monitor him closely, keeping him hydrated.

Cp child treatment neck holding and seating
Male | 13 month
Babies can hold up their necks around two months old. By four months they do it better, no struggle. If the baby has trouble with neck muscles, it's a sign of weakness. Causes like not enough "tummy time" or late progress. Give baby more tummy time for a strong neck. Support the neck when carrying the baby always.

Female | 5
A persistent cough without phlegm and elevated body temperature could indicate a viral infection, like influenza or a common cold virus. Ensure that she consumes ample fluids and gets sufficient rest. If necessary, administer children's fever-reducing medication, carefully following age-appropriate dosage instructions. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical evaluation.

Can we take cetrizine and amydramine at same time My daughter had those both on time . She is 6years old
Female | 6
Cetrizine treats allergies. Amitriptyline helps with conditions like depression. Kids shouldn't take them together though. The mix could make them feel sleepy, confused, and have a fast heartbeat. Talk to your doctor instead of mixing these medicines for your daughter.

Male | 3
Occasionally, one testicle might be located higher than the other and there is nothing to worry about since that is natural. The penis is normally the same size at a very young age, as far as measurements go. Be on the lookout for any changes but they are usually rectified without intervention as your child grows. Besides, don't always be concerned about i.

Is it just a viral or periodic fever syndrome because every time pattern and time is same
Female | 2
Based on your description, your daughter may have recurrent fever syndrome. This condition involves frequent episodes of high body temperature occurring in a regular pattern. It can result from various causes, such as infections, inflammation, or genetic factors. Since she also has a sore throat, a viral infection is likely the cause. Ensure she gets plenty of rest, drinks a lot of water, and takes fever-reducing medication if she has a fever. Make an appointment with a pediatrician as soon as possible and get her checked regularly.

Hi! I just started wetting the bed two nights in a row. My friend gave me one of his kids Huggies 4t-5t Pull Ups to try. I tried one on and it fit perfect actually since I am small for my age. I woke up wet today. I also have tried out a pacifier that they gave me for better sleep for a few nights.
Male | 26
Bedwetting as an adult can be due to various reasons like stress, urinary tract infections, or other medical conditions. It's important to see a urologist to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. Using pull-ups or pacifiers may help in the short term, but consulting a specialist is the best step for a long-term solution.

2 year baby doing vomiting in 2 days
Female | 2
This happens sometimes. Maybe a small bug crept in, or some food didn't sit right. The key is keeping baby hydrated with tiny sips of water or rehydration drinks. Stick to gentle eats like bananas and rice too. But if puking persists, or other concerning signs show up, get that checked by a pediatrician.

Female | 25
Rheumatoid arthritis does not harm your baby through breast milk. It's a kind of autoimmune disease that has joint pain and swelling issues. You are not giving your baby the disease through breastfeeding. Following your care regime as your doctor indicated is essential. Only if otherwise told by the doctor of medications that are not suitable to take during breastfeeding.

Sometimes babies struggle with digesting mom's milk correctly. Black poop and weakness could signal trouble. Maybe an infection or food intolerance. Try giving smaller, more frequent feedings. If other symptoms show up, seek medical advice. Definitely tell your pediatrician if this issue persists. They can guide next steps.

Your child has swelling around their private parts. This swelling happens sometimes. It can come from being irritated or something causing infection. Maybe your child got hurt there. It's important to keep that area clean and dry. You can use a gentle cream after washing the spot gently. If the swelling doesn't go away soon, get help from a doctor. Or if the swelling bothers your child, see a pediatrician.

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?
Female | 7
According to the symptoms and signs described, it appears to be a case of atopic dermatitis which is common among children of the mentioned age. It is a condition where the skin barrier is disturbed and is extremely sensitive to external environmental triggers like cold and dry weather, dust etc. It presents as red dry itchy patches on cheeks, hands and legs sometimes whole body. The above mentioned creams contain topical corticosteroids which are to be used with a great caution under the supervision of Dermatologist. Good barrier repairing creams including emollients with squalene, ceramides etc can help reviving the skin barrier. Steroid sparing drugs can be prescribed to manage the rash. Please consult a qualified Dermatologist and do not use topical corticosteroids without doctor’s advice as it may cause many adverse effects.

It's important to treat threadworms with proper medication. You can use over-the-counter medicines like mebendazole or albendazole, which are effective.
