1.7-Year-Old Boy Sleeps on Stomach: Leg Movement Explanation
My 1.7 year old boy sleep stomach side and move legs why
General Physician
Answered on 26th June '24
Sleeping on the tummy, legs moving - it is typical for a 1.7-year-old. They're getting more control over their little bodies, so the position feels comfy. And that leg motion? It might be self-soothing. Be sure their sleep space is safe from any risky objects. If you're worried, chat with your pediatrician about it.

Male | 30
A fever of 100.2°F, shivering, cold feet, sleepiness, and fatigue can be the indicators of an infection that has occurred in his body. You should not take lightly the record of a febrile seizure which necessitates you to keep watch on his temperature. You should ensure that he is sleeping enough, getting enough water, and feeling comfortable in his clothes. If the fever continues or other unusual symptoms appear, consult a pediatrician.

I'm hive positive when I was pregnant with my daughter she is 18 years old now but she don't know about it is she infected?
Female | 38
Being HIV positive is a major concern, yet it doesn't necessarily mean transmission to your daughter. Daily activities like sharing meals or embracing do not spread HIV. The virus can only transmit via blood, sexual relations, or during childbirth. Getting your daughter tested for HIV will provide certainty. If positive, treatments exist to maintain her health. There's no need for excessive worry; simply encourage her to undergo testing.

Son 13 year old vomiting pain on stomach and headache
Male | 13
The signs of a stomach bug can start with vomiting. Stomach pain and headache are also two other possible symptoms. Often, these bugs are self-limiting and go by themselves, for the time being, ensure he drinks as much as possible to avoid dehydration, and feed him suitable light foods. Should he not feel any better in several days, it's the best option to see a gastroenterologist.

My son is 1 he has been having diarrhoea but like small pieces off poo and wet but a lot redness around the bum it really hurts him
Male | 1
He may have loose, watery poo called diarrhea. His red bottom likely stems from irritation caused by frequent bathroom visits. Viruses or bad food can trigger this condition. Keep him hydrated with plenty of fluids like water or electrolyte drinks formulated for infants experiencing diarrhea. Apply diaper rash cream to soothe the redness. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a pediatrician right away for proper care advice.

4 year old took 15ml of zarbees cough medicine. Is there a chance of overdose
Male | 4
Medicine can hurt if not taken properly. Taking too much Zarbee's cough syrup is bad for little kids. If a 4-year-old drinks 15ml, it's more than safe. Overdosing causes sick feeling, throwing up, feeling sleepy, or breathing trouble. Call poison control or visit hospital quickly for help.

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.

Hi, my baby was born without the soft spot on his head should I be concerned?
Male | 1
Babies often arrive without the soft spot called a fontanelle. This happens when head bones join early before birth. Generally, it's fine, as long as the baby grows well. Though you'll want to mention it to your pediatrician. They can check that development is on track. If any issues arise, the doctor will advise next steps.

My son 7months old, he s getting cold often for past four months, before three months we kept nebulizer for him. After medicines he s getting cured but after a week again he s getting cold may I know wats the reason and how can I prevent him
Male | 7 months
Colds are quite common in infants as their immune systems develop. A runny or stuffy nose is the primary symptom. The recurrence stems from his immature immunity against germs. To prevent future colds, maintain a hygienic environment, practice frequent handwashing, and limit exposure to ill individuals. Nutritious dietary intake and adequate rest can bolster his immunity. However, if the cold persists or concerning symptoms arise, consult a pediatrician.

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.

Hi doctor. My baby gets cold often while ac is on but if I switch it off he sweats so much and never sleeps. He starts crying. I don’t know what to do . Please help. Thank you.
Male | 1
The situation with your baby seems to involve regulating body heat. With AC on, your little one feels cold. Without AC, they get sweaty. This happens because babies' sweat glands aren't fully developed yet. So their bodies struggle to control their temperature. To help, dress your baby in layers that are easy to remove. Keep the room around 68-72°F. A small fan can gently circulate air without making it too breezy or cold. These simple adjustments should help your baby stay comfortable and sleep soundly.

It's common for children to have movable lumps due to swollen lymph nodes, which often occur with infections. However, since the lump has persisted for two months, it's important to consult a pediatrician. They can properly assess and provide the best advice for your child's condition.

It's common for viral infections to cause dysentery with mucous in children. Antibiotics are not effective against viruses and may not be needed. Follow your doctor's advice closely. If you have concerns about the medication, discuss them with your pediatrician who can provide the best guidance for your child's condition.
