My 9 year old kid ate mold cake by mistake. What should we do? Do we want to take him to the hospital? Not showing any symptoms now .
Male | 9
Mold exposure can trigger health issues in some people, but not everyone is affected. It's important to watch for symptoms like stomach swelling, vomiting, diarrhea, or nausea. Generally, if the child appears well, there’s no major cause for concern. Encourage drinking water as the main beverage, and if any symptoms do appear, consult a doctor for evaluation.

My daughter is burning up off and on but has had a cold and cough
Female | 1
Your daughter may get a fever due to her cold and cough. The body often raises its temperature to fight infections. Make sure she drinks plenty of fluids, gets enough rest, and gives her fever medicine like acetaminophen if needed. If the fever persists or other symptoms appear, it's best to consult a pediatrician.

My daughter is 5.3 years old. Her weight is 14.4kg and height -110cm. She hardly feels hungry and since more than 1 year her weight has not increased. She just wants to play and while with friends forgets to eat and drink. In fact since 2 months, there's bit white spot in her face. She doesn't listen/ follow any elderly soon. Can say bit stubborn and sometimes if we donot listen to her, she will cry and try to snatch/hit too.

In this case, her eating habits. Over a proper diet and acne-like problems, though can be infections of the milder kind. Quiet time with regular meals and snacks can help. Offering small but attractive portions and ensuring a welcoming eating environment can promote the children's successful nutrition. After you are ready, could you take a step and involve a pediatrician to consider possible links between her behavioral manifestations and diagnostic tests? The method you take to guide her is critical in enabling her to be healthier.

Early puberty in 8.5year daughter,pubic hair under arm
Female | 8
Experiencing early puberty can be tricky for an 8.5-year-old girl. It could stem from genetics, weight issues, or medical problems. Watch for signs like pubic or underarm hair growth, body odor changes, or sudden height spurts. These indicate puberty onset. Talk to your pediatrician to understand what's happening inside her body. They'll run tests to identify the cause and recommend the best care approach.

Male | 1
Kids feel lousy when sick. Your child's fever and lack of eating/drinking could mean an infection like a cold or flu. Sometimes, kids don't want food when unwell. Offer lots of liquids - water, juice mixed with water, sips often. Give small meals that digest easily. If the fever is high or your child seems ill, see a pediatrician.

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.

My toddler is not gaining weight much she is 20months weight 8.2
Female | 2
At the age of 20 months, the weight of 8.2 may be lower than the one anticipated. Among the symptoms of sluggish weight gain could be, for instance, having an unenthusiastic appetite, being overly picky during feedings, or exhibiting low energy levels. The causes might be allergies to food, digestive problems, or developers of an unbalanced diet like picky eaters. Create mealtimes as amusing as can be, you can also consult a pediatrician who will give the best recommendations and evaluations.

Dear sir, my son's digestion is week. He womits easily and choosy in food habits. He is underweight compared to his age and goes to stool passing frequently. Kindly suggest remedy.
Male | 6
It looks like he has perhaps a problem called "gastrointestinal issues." Bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections, food allergies, or stress can cause it. To ease his pain, you can feed him small, frequent meals such as bananas, rice, or applesauce, which are easy on his stomach. Also, don't forget about enough water. You should consult a pediatrician for proper guidance.

What can I give a girl having high temperature
Female | 5
Fevers are the body's reaction to fighting off germs. Drink lots of water. Take acetaminophen for the fever. If the fever persists for more than 3 days, visit a doctor. That's important because high fevers can be worrisome. A mild fever under 102 Fahrenheit is okay and common for kids during minor illnesses. But anything over 103 Fahrenheit means getting medical attention. Keeping fluids up and medication helps kids feel better during fevers.

Babies swallowing baby powder with talcum is common. Usually, it's harmless. Sometimes, it causes coughing or choking briefly. Watch for breathing troubles or stomach issues. Often, no treatment is required. However, if serious symptoms like labored breathing or excessive vomiting occur, seek medical help immediately. In most cases, everything resolves smoothly.

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.
Male | 11
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 5 year old baby is suffering from unprotectable coughing at night while sleeping please help me.. how to control her cough.. she is unable to sleep continuously for 5 minutes
Female | 5
It seems your child is having trouble with nighttime coughing, which can be tough for both of you. This coughing might be due to throat or chest irritation. You can try using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, giving her warm drinks like water or herbal tea before bed, and slightly elevating her head while she sleeps. These steps may help reduce the coughing.

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.

Male | 3.5 month
Your child's fever is concerning. Fevers usually happen when the body fights infections, like colds or flu. To lower fever and improve comfort, give acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Ensure they drink water frequently. Let them rest. Use a light blanket to maintain coolness. However, if the fever doesn't improve or worsen, it's crucial to visit a pediatrician immediately.
