21 Month Old with Blood in Diarrhea
I'm just concerned about my 21 month old son. He has had diarrhea today the second bowel movement I noticed a small streak of blood. He hasn't had blood anymore but he has diarrhea. He's eating normally and acting normally no fever. It doesn't have a foul smell, it smells sweet and mucusy. What's wrong with him? We have to leave tomorrow for a family trip? Should I cancel? Is he sick?

It's understandable to be concerned about your son's symptoms. Diarrhea with a small streak of blood could be due to a minor irritation or infection. Since he is eating and acting normally without a fever, it might not be serious, but it's best to consult a pediatrician to ensure he's okay.

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.

Hi, my baby is 1 year and 3 month old, he is stooling watery every midnight for 3 days now, am on birth control injection, could it be the birth control or am pregnant pls am confused
Female | 1
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.

Neck troncesse age 4 yere
Male | 4
A 4-year-old may experience neck stiffness. Poor posture or minor injury strains the neck muscles. Turning the neck becomes difficult. Gentle neck movements help. Apply a warm compress. Give pain relievers if needed. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a pediatrician.

I’m worried about my daughters certain movement she’s 2 and half month old
Female | 0
Babies usually have different movements when growing. Your 2.5-month-old daughter may show jerky, shaky motions. Her developing nervous system causes this. These movements normally go away as she ages. Contact your pediatrician if concerned about any signs.

It sounds like your baby might have a fever. A temperature of 100.4°F is a sign of fever in a 20-month-old child. It's best to consult a pediatrician to understand the cause and get proper treatment. They can provide the right advice and care for your baby.

Female | 0
Babies double their weight by six months, so it's good you pay attention. If yours isn't gaining weight properly, reasons could include insufficient intake, medical issues, or natural smallness. Rather than calculating solo, discuss with the pediatrician - they'll identify the actual cause and recommend ideal steps for your little one's progress.

If your son is frequently getting viral infections every month, it's important to consult a pediatrician. They can assess his immune system and overall health to determine if there are underlying causes or preventive measures that can be taken. A pediatrician specializing in infectious diseases can provide tailored advice and treatments to help strengthen his immunity and reduce the frequency of infections.

Dear sir/mam. My baby is facing continuously coughing and my self my wife also facing this cough past one week but still we suffer this cough
Female | 4
Babies often cough. It's normal and happens for many reasons. Infections cause coughing. So do allergies. Signs of coughing: sore throat, runny nose, tired. Stay hydrated. Rest lots. Don't breathe smoke. Use humidifier or saline drops. The cough might not go soon. If it lasts, see a pediatrician.

can i get a letter of recovery for my hand foot mouth disease
Female | 15
Hand, foot, and mouth disease affects many youngsters. Still, adults may contract this viral issue too. Symptoms have fever, aches when swallowing, and blister formations on hands, feet, and in the mouth region. Spreading occurs via close-contact situations. To heal, rest adequately, consume fluids diligently, and utilize pain relievers as required. Avoid transmitting further by washing hands frequently.

my son has a tongue tie, pls suggest me what to do, he is 1 month 4 days old
Male | 1month
When a muscle under the tongue is too tight, it's called a tongue tie. Babies may struggle to nurse, sticking their tongue out, or even speaking later. A fast procedure named a frenotomy releases that tight tissue. Quick and painless, it fixes the issue. Reach out to a pediatrician. They'll guide you on if it's needed.

Hi doctor my son has cough nd fever for 4 days yesterday I went to pediatrician he checked the temperature as 104 thn he told to take blood test nd x ray In blood test Crp is 69 is it any issues
Male | 3
Your son's high fever and cough for 4 days is understandable. The blood test shows inflammation or infection. This could be bacterial, causing the fever and cough. The doctor advised an X-ray to identify the issue. Antibiotics may help treat infection. Ensure your son rests well, drinks enough fluids, and takes medicines as prescribed by a pediatrician.

My 4yrs kid is having heavy cough and cold from 3-4 days. Its getting worse day by day. He is having continuous cough
Male | 4
Kids deal with coughing and colds differently. Typical signs include a drippy nose, sneezing fits, and lingering cough. Viruses spread easily, causing these issues. Make sure your kiddo drinks enough liquids, rests well, and uses a humidifier to alleviate coughing. You could offer honey as well. If your child appears very ill or struggles breathing, seek medical attention promptly.

If my son is sick and he was around another sick child that probably has the same cold he has and they started something can my child get worse
Male | 3
Catching a cold is likely if exposed to someone who's sick. Colds come from viruses - tiny germs. Symptoms may include coughing, sneezing, runny nose, fever sometimes. To help your son recover, ensure he rests well, drinks plenty of fluids, and takes over-the-counter medicine if required.

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 son 3.7 yars old from last 1 days i notice hi was take long breath after 1 and 2 minutes. And he have some autism problem from last 2yrs but now no any autism problem seen after giving proper guide and attension So i have need to know is this normal in child
Male | 3.7 years
You are doing well by noticing that your son is changing. The need for breathing exercises comes from very different things. Children may experience just like in the case when they are thrilled, angry, or sick. Long breaths don't usually come from autism, so it's a positive thing his symptoms have improved. Try it, but if you're still worried, go to a pediatrician first so they can rule out anything serious.

Male | 4
Kids often don't have an appetite and get sick. This can happen when they're growing up fast. Infections, bad food choices, or even stress might cause it. Make sure your son eats healthy stuff like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Little meals and snacks work better than big ones sometimes. He needs water and rest too. If it keeps happening, talk to the doctor about what's going on and what to do next.
