It seems like your little one might have caught a cold. This causes the body to work hard, making the hands and feet feel cold. However, we can help! Try massaging his hands and feet gently. Or, use warm socks to keep them comfortable. Make sure he rests and stays snug.

9 month baby boy has ear itching and smell coming problem
Male | 9 month
It's common for infants to experience discomfort in their ears, which might be due to various reasons such as allergies, wax buildup, or an ear infection. Itching and an unusual odor could indicate irritation or infection. To help your child, keep the ears dry and clean, avoiding cotton swabs. You might try using a warm compress for relief. However, it's important to consult a pediatrician for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

My son is 15 months old,he is suffering with cold and cough
Male | 15 months
Catching cold is very common in little ones, leading to symptoms like sneezing, a runny nose, and occasional coughing. These are often caused by viruses, especially during colder months. To help your son feel better, ensure he stays hydrated and rests adequately. Using a humidifier can also ease his breathing. If the cough persists beyond a few days, worsens, or is accompanied by fever, it’s important to consult a pediatrician.

I understand your concern about your son's health. Since he has been suffering from typhoid fever for 15 days and is not improving despite medication, it's advisable to follow your doctor's advice for hospital admission. Hospitalization will ensure he receives proper monitoring, intravenous fluids, and medications to fight the infection effectively. Please continue to follow the guidance of the pediatrician or the specialist managing his case.

Child baby 1.5yrs He continually crying
Female | 1.5
It’s quite common for toddlers around 1.5 years old to cry frequently due to various reasons. They may be experiencing discomfort due to teething, hunger, tiredness, or seeking attention. Emotional factors, like separation anxiety, can also contribute. To help soothe your child, ensure they are well-fed, rested, and comfortable. Engaging in gentle play or offering a favorite toy may provide comfort. However, if the crying persists and is accompanied by unusual symptoms such as fever or refusal to eat, it’s wise to consult a pediatrician. They can provide tailored advice and support as needed.

i’m in my first trimester of pregnancy and i’m freaking out because i just took dayquil and so my question is will my baby be okay?
Female | 23
Moms can feel very uneasy if they have taken something during pregnancy that was not on the medication list they were given. Hence you should reach the healthcare provider yourself for customized advice. You can independently diagnose and reassure him or her. Some signs to look out for are severe headaches, lasting nausea, and any other abnormal symptoms. Consult a physician. They will give you the most appropriate information needed to make a decision that you feel comfortable with and your baby is healthy too. Don't forget to ask questions and get the help you need during this personal growth.

My baby is suffering from constipation plz tell me about best constipation medicine I have already tried many syrup r drops kindly give me best suggestions
Female | 2.5 year
Constipation in infants often presents as infrequent stools, discomfort during bowel movements, or hard stools. Common causes include low fluid intake, insufficient fiber in the diet, or changes in routine. It's important to ensure your baby stays well-hydrated and receives a balanced diet suitable for their age. Gentle tummy massages and warm baths can also help relieve discomfort. If over-the-counter options haven't worked, I recommend discussing this with your pediatrician. They can suggest appropriate treatments tailored to your child's needs and rule out any underlying issues.

What could be the reason for a 10 year old to smell armpits and grow breasts
Female | 25
The reason for a 10-year-old to have body odor and start developing breasts is usually the beginning of puberty, which is normal. However, it can sometimes be a sign of early puberty or other hormonal issues. It is best to visit a pediatric endocrinologist for proper evaluation and advice.

My 3 months old baby having loose motion past 3 days...I visit doctor she gave medicines but not working on her...kindly tell me the solution... Novidate syrup Zinc day syrup Ors enterogermina ampoule
Female | 3 months
Diarrhea in infants can result from various factors, including infections or dietary changes. It's essential to maintain hydration with oral rehydration solutions, as they help replenish lost fluids and electrolytes. The medications prescribed, like Novidate and zinc, aim to support recovery. If you don’t see improvement soon, or if your baby shows signs of dehydration (such as reduced urine output or lethargy), please consult your pediatrician again for further evaluation and care.

Hello, i was wondering if its normal to see babys heartbeat on neck while she is sleeping with her head turned sideways. Its not hard, but its visible. She is healthy and growing like she should. She is 8months.
Female | 8 months
It looks completely natural to see your daughter's heartbeat on her neck while she sleeps on her side. Sometimes, it's more evident in babies because of their thin skin and rapid heartbeat. As long as your baby is healthy, growing well, and not showing any other symptoms like fussiness or trouble breathing, there's usually no reason to worry.

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.

My brother is 8 years old and he is 25 kg. He take 10mg Loratadine everyday and it has been 8 days since he started taking it. Today he accidentally took 20 mg. First time he took it was 3 hours ago and second time was 40 minutes ago. What can we do? Is it dangerous? We don’t have availability for doctor right now.
Male | 8
Accidentally taking a higher dose of Loratadine can cause symptoms like drowsiness, headache, or fast heartbeat, especially in children. Since your brother took 20 mg instead of 10 mg, it's important to monitor him closely for any unusual symptoms. Try to keep him calm and hydrated. If you notice severe symptoms or you're concerned, please seek immediate medical advice from a pediatrician or visit the nearest hospital for evaluation and guidance.

Hair problems. Age 1year 3month. Why Not hair growth.
Female | 1.3 years
This is due to the combination of genetics, diet, and underpinning health issues. A possible symptom could be the loss of hair or the presence of very thin hair. A healthy diet that includes vitamins, especially Vitamin D and B, will help. Lastly, the gentle massage of your baby's scalp during his bath can also improve blood circulation. Hair growth in children can be quite different for every child and might need some patience from the parents. In the case of continuous worrying, we suggest that you might want to see a pediatrician or a dermatologist and have a personal chat with them about it.

My daughter aged 6 yrs 10 months .She is suffering from pain in mid of chest everyday after dinner.sometimes she feels some burning in throat We are giving her antacids likeRantac, sucralfate,Gelusuil.But no relief.What can we do?
Female | 44
Your daughter's chest discomfort and throat burning after dinner are concerning. These could indicate acid reflux, when stomach acid rises into the esophagus. Sometimes, antacids aren't enough. Try smaller meals, avoid spicy/acidic foods. Also, elevate her bed's headrest. This may reduce symptoms. If issues persist, consult a cardiologist. They can recommend treatments or evaluate further.

fussy baby who doesn’t want to eat or held or put down, just wants to sleep or be put to sleep
Male | 3 months
When babies act fussy, they don't want to eat, be held, or put down and want to sleep, there could be many reasons for this. Some common ones are teething pain, feeling unwell, or needing extra cuddles and love. Try gently comforting your baby. Offer soothing activities, and watch for any other signs of illness. If the symptoms don't go away or get worse, it's a good idea to get help from a pediatrician.
