Can jaundice in a 6-month-old lead to liver failure?

My 6 months baby is suffering from jaundice since 4 months and it's leads to liver failure. Can this problem solves.....??

Answered on 4th June '24

Jaundice in babies can occur when their liver is not working properly. This makes their skin and eyes turn yellow. Sometimes it may cause serious liver failure. You need to take your baby to a hepatologist for proper treatment. The physician may prescribe drugs, suggest changes in diet, or severe cases recommend liver transplantation. Ensure you adhere to what the doctor tells you to help your child feel better.

I doubt my baby swallowed a piece of glass

Male | 1

Glass in the mouth is a serious thing. You need to watch your baby closely. Glass can scratch or cut the­ir insides. Look for choking, drooling, and discomfort. If their tummy hurts or they have­ trouble breathing, that's not good. Take the­m to see a doctor right away in these­ cases.

My name Tulsi my sister have pregnant and she got ultrasound and result is Normal but one problem mcdk in baby kidney

Female | 28

The doctor saw in an ultrasound that it had a Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney (MCDK). This means one of the kidneys is not normal and is filled with fluid sacs instead of working as it should. Most times this doesn’t show any signs so don’t worry too much about this just yet; let’s wait for more information from them after some check-ups.

Which supplement is good to grow height after 16 in like 9-10 months??

Female | 17

You're conside­ring height. Bones halt growth past age 16, so supple­ments cannot increase stature­. Eat balanced meals, exe­rcise regularly, and obtain ample sle­ep - these practice­s maximize natural height potential. If worrie­d, discuss it with a medical professional. Maintain healthy habits.

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.

This Rajendra from Nepal today I bring to you that my son is 7 year old. He has strayed high fever sudden i Took in the clinic which dr. Has giving som glucose and since 7 days he is not eating anything Please suggest me to what should I do he has very weakness he can’t stand all the sleeping only

Male | 7

It seems he may have a serious condition causing the fever and weakness. The glucose given by the doctor was likely to provide energy. Not eating for 7 days is quite concerning. It's important to take him back to the doctor for further evaluation and treatment. Meanwhile, ensure he stays hydrated and gets plenty of rest.

my 4 months old baby fell out of bed hitting the back of her head, apart from a slight regurgitation (considering that he had just eaten) otherwise he seems fine, the pupils respond symmetrically when stimulated by light. Does She need to go to the emergency or have other checks at home

Femmina | 1

You need to observe baby for 24-48 hours as some symptoms can develop later. It would be advisable to get baby examined by pediatrician.

I am a child of age 11 and I think I have checken pox

Male | 11

Chickenpox is a frequent illness in kids. The symptoms consist of red itchy spots which form into blisters, fever, and not feeling well. It is caused by a virus called varicella-zoster. The good news is that chickenpox usually will go away by itself in a week or two. Be sure to consume enough fluids and rest. Prevent scarring by scratching the blisters. Inform a grown-up at home so they can help take care of you while you recover.

My kid is 3yrs old still not talking

Female | 3

Some childre­n take time to deve­lop speaking skills. If your 3-year-old isn't using many words ye­t, or joining them together, the­re's no need to worry right away. Howe­ver, it's wise to have the­ir hearing checked. A spe­ech therapist can assess if the­re are any deve­lopmental issues causing the de­lay.
