What should i do to make him healthy. Pls help me doctor

Your baby’s weight gain is an important indicator of his growth, and at 6 kg, he is within a healthy range for his age. It’s common for infants to go a few days without bowel movements, especially when transitioning to solids. Ensure he stays hydrated and receives a varied diet beyond ragi, introducing fruits and vegetables gradually. Monitor his overall mood and energy levels. If you have concerns about his growth or bowel habits, consulting your pediatrician can provide personalized guidance and reassurance.

Cough and fever is now 102 and I give him ogmentine reltis and calpol

Male | 6year and 7 month

An indication of coughing and high temperature can be one of various disorders, typically connected with the viral infections or, rarely, with the bacterial ones. Even though medicines such as Augment and Calpol can give relief from symptoms, it is crucial to observe the overall health of your child. Make sure to keep them hydrated and they get enough sleep. Should the fever not go awayor get worse, or new symptoms appear consult your healthcare professional, so he can make a complete assessment.

When the body fights an infection, fe­ver can occur. Signs that may point to a serious infection are­ vomiting and high fever. The inje­ction given at the hospital may require­ time before its e­ffects are see­n. It's important to keep her hydrate­d and try cooling methods. If the feve­r persists, further doctor evaluation may be­ needed..

My baby boy is 31 months old and he didn't talking still... That's express his needs with signs only ...what is the the problem?

Male | 31 months

When a child does not talk, especially when he or she is already 31 months old, a parent needs to respond to this issue immediately. It may be an early sign of a speech delay. Sometimes, hearing trouble or a delay in development could be the cause. The most effective way is through speech therapist intervention which may mean providing strategies to improve your child's language skills.

5 yers my boy harnia surgery sens kob tok ate

Male | 5

This is common during the recovery period as the inner muscles are still healing. Eating soft, easy-to-digest foods can help. In most cases, surgery is needed. Support his recovery with a bland diet while his body heals.

I have a Rottweiler and it is vaccinated, he scratched my daughter by nails and blood came, this was 6 months back , so she was also vaccinated .....but today it bite her again by yeetc , but there is some scratch only, there is no blood , should I again go for vaccination for my daughter.

Female | 4

Your daughter and your pet have been vaccinated so the chances of a serious infection are low. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or pain in the scratch. If it seems to heal well without any problematic signs, then there is no need for more vaccination for your daughter. Make sure that the wound is kept clean and observe any changes.

My 2 year old daughter tested positive 6 days ago for covid as of today she is negative but she still have a lot of mucus in her nose and still have a cough is that normal should I be concerned still is her first time having covid

Female | 2

Lingering symptoms happe­n after recovery. He­r body clears infection leftove­rs. Keep hydrating her. Use­ a humidifier, saline drops for mucus relie­f. Ensure she's comfy. Monitor breathing issue­s; seek help if worse­ning. Otherwise, she'll re­cover gradually.
