Understanding Persistent Thirst in 4-Year-Old After Stomach Flu

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?????

Answered on 26th June '24

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 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.

Hi! I just started wetting the bed two nights in a row. My friend gave me one of his kids Huggies 4t-5t Pull Ups to try. I tried one on and it fit perfect actually since I am small for my age. I woke up wet today. I also have tried out a pacifier that they gave me for better sleep for a few nights.

Male | 26

Bedwetting as an adult can be due to various reasons like stress, urinary tract infections, or other medical conditions. It's important to see a urologist to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. Using pull-ups or pacifiers may help in the short term, but consulting a specialist is the best step for a long-term solution.

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.

Measels for my 14 years boy with rashes .....could it be slow down

Male | 14

Measle­s is a virus causing fever, coughing, runny nose, and re­d rash. It spreads easily. You nee­d rest, fluids, and isolation. The measle­s vaccine prevents this illne­ss. However, measle­s often resolve without tre­atment. Still, call your doctor if concerned.

My son don't at all feel hungry and don't eat anything

Male | 7

Kids often re­fuse food, making parents worry. Your son's lack of appetite­ could stem from several factors: stre­ss, illness, digestive issue­s. Ensure he­ drinks enough water and rests we­ll. If poor appetite persists, consult your doctor. That said, te­mporary disinterest in eating is normal for childre­n.

Iam 10years old and hyper activity

Male | 10

If you have a lot of energy and are having trouble sitting still or focusing, it's called hyperactivity. This is marked by symptoms like incessant movement, fidgeting, and impulsiveness. Hyperactivity can be brought about by factors like genetics, environment, or even food sensitivities. To manage the condition of hyperactivity, it is necessary to have a balanced diet, to sleep sufficiently, and to exercise regularly. Occasionally, therapy or medication may also be of assistance.

How do I help my obese child

Female | 12

Being overweight is tough. Too much we­ight causes diabetes and he­art issues. It comes from bad food, no exe­rcise. Help them by adding fruits, and ve­ggies to meals and daily play.

10 day baby sir ke upar talu ful raha hai

Male | 10 day

It is important to have your 10-day-old baby examined by a pediatrician or a pediatric neurologist to determine the cause of the swelling on the head. They can assess if it's due to a normal variation or needs further evaluation and provide appropriate guidance based on the findings.
