Why is my son's nipple red and inverted?
My 14 month old son developed a red nipple last Saturday. Since then the redness has gone down. However still a noticable difference from the other nipple. It is also going inverted and coming back out. He was not born with inverted nipples.

Answered on 23rd May '24
It is great that differences have been spotted in your son's nipple. This could be due to moments of redness and inversions whenever irritations or infections set in. It is quite necessary to stick around. If the condition persists or grows more severe, the best alternative would be to seek further evaluation and advice from a pediatrician.

the patient in hospital is a young girl and doctor wants to take her C.T. scan but she is crying too much and it difficult to control her in that condition what would doctor do
Female | 6
Crying is normal when frightened. To make the girl calmer, speak softly, give comfort, and explain the scans like taking a picture inside her body. Ask her parent to hold her hand or be close while it happens. This might help her feel safer. Giving her a favorite toy or music could also distract her from the scan's happenings.

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.

These symptoms can be pretty rough for a kid her age. There are a few possible reasons: stress, not enough sleep, or something in her diet. My advice is to take her to see a pediatric neurologist for the headaches, plus a counselor. Getting help from both might be useful.

I gave cremazen plus to 3years baby as 5ml unexpected as the gelusil mps was same.any problem for this
Male | 3
Giving Cremazen Plus, meant for adults, to a three-year-old child instead of Gelusil MPS could lead to issues. Side effects like feeling sleepy, puzzled, and an upset tummy are possible. The mix-up arose because these medicines treat varying stomach problems. To correct this, ensure the proper medication is given next time.

I am hbe trait ,my wife has hbe disease...she is 3 months pregnant.what is the probability in our baby
Female | 33
The risk of the baby carrying the disease goes as follows: 25% chance of inheriting the disease from you, 50% of being a carrier even though the baby will be unaffected, and 25% of being totally okay. Some of these manifestations are tiredness and growth delay in the affected persons. Regular check-ups throughout the pregnancy are important in order to watch over the baby's health. Genetic counseling should be considered among supportive measures taken to fully understand prognosis and know the best treatment options that are available to you. Your doctor should always be consulted before receiving any medical advice to ensure the best care options for your wife and baby. Your early identification will contribute to it.

Female | 8
It's understandable to be concerned about your daughter’s use of her inhaler during the winter months. Persistent coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath might indicate asthma or allergies, which can be triggered by cold air or respiratory infections. Regularly visiting her healthcare professional is crucial for monitoring her condition and adjusting treatment as necessary. Additionally, consider discussing strategies to minimize exposure to triggers, such as keeping her warm and avoiding allergens. Your pediatrician can provide tailored advice and ensure she remains healthy.

My 2 year old daughter drink the calamine lotion approx 20 to 30 ml. What can we do ?
Female | 2
Calamine lotion is usually harmless if consumed in small quantities. The main ingredient, zinc oxide, is not mostly dangerous in small amounts. Be on the lookout for any stomach upset like nausea or vomiting. Besides this, ensure she is drinking water to hydrate herself. If she has any troubling indications, get her to the hospital.

Female | 40
Mumps can leave discomfort behind. It causes a viral infection, making salivary glands swell. This leads to ear and mouth pain, dryness. Some symptoms may linger after the infection ends. Stay hydrated: drink plenty of water. Avoid acidic, spicy foods – they could irritate. Get lots of rest. If pain persists or worsens, see a doctor.

Female | 9
These symptoms could stem from various factors, including growth spurts, overuse, or minor injuries. Encouraging rest, applying ice, and gentle stretches can often provide relief. Additionally, ensuring proper footwear and warm-ups before activities may help prevent further strain. However, given the multiple areas affected, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation. They can provide suitable treatment options and guidance.

I have 15 months baby can I use spasan Noel tablet
Female | 22
Giving a 15-month-old baby Spasmonel tablets is dangerous. These pills are not for babies and might bring harm to them. In the case that your baby is having stomach issues or is feeling some kind of discomfort, it's better to use some mild tools such as holding him/her tenderly, giving water, or attempting a warm bath. Get advice from a pediatrician if symptoms do not improve or get worse.

Your daughter likely has a clubfoot and a squint that can't be straightened. The fact that her clubfoot was treated at an early stage is a good thing, but the curved fingers may still be present. Regarding Ames squint-eye, the treatment is still in progress. The use of glasses is widespread and it is crucial to have her sight checked frequently.

My 5 month old opened her mouth for 2 to 3 mins two times today. I was worried about her because she never did it before. Is it normal? Moreover she do not have congested nose nor does she have any other symptoms or issue..
Female | 5 months
It's not uncommon for infants to exhibit new behaviors, such as opening their mouths for extended periods. This could be a sign of exploring their environment, a reflex action, or simply a stage in their development. Since your baby is not showing any signs of discomfort or illness, it’s likely nothing to be concerned about. However, keep an eye on her behavior. If it continues or if you notice any other unusual signs, don’t hesitate to reach out to your pediatrician for reassurance.

Hi there! You are experiencing anxiety about your daughter's poop, aren't you? It is very much understandable then. If her stools have been the same for eight months and she is not gaining weight, it may indicate an issue. Observe the appearance of her stools for any unusual changes that may indicate diarrhea, constipation, or blood in her stool. Consult a pediatrician for proper treatment.

My son is a year old and he fell during the night and bit the inside of his lower lip. He was bleeding but I managed to stop it, now it is swollen. I am scared, what can I do? I gave him painamol syrup for kids.

Your son has a common lip bite injury. Swelling is normal and should go down in a few days. To help with this, gently press a cold compress on the outside of his lip. Painamol can be effective for the pain. Keep an eye on him to ensure he can still eat and drink comfortably.
