Is Whitish Uvula in Newborn Baby Girl Normal?
My baby girl has whitish uvula this is confusing me is it normal in Newborn kindly help me with it
General Physician
Answered on 15th Oct '24
A whitish uvula in newborns is perfectly normal, which is the small dangly thing that hangs in the back of the throat. This can be caused by the buildup of milk or mucus. If your baby is not having any issues with breathing or feeding, then there is usually no reason to worry. Simply after it. If your baby is having trouble breathing or feeding, get in touch with a pediatrician.

7 years kids having fever from last 8 hours, now half body is hot amd half ia chilled,
Female | 7
A fever means the body battles an infection. Kids' bodies can feel hot, then cold as it regulates temperature. Give your child fluids, rest, and fever-reducing medicine like acetaminophen if required. If the fever persists over two days or other worrying symptoms arise, consult a pediatrician promptly.

Low blood sugar in my 22 day new born child what treatment for hypoglycemia
Male | 22 day
What causes concern is a newborn with hypoglycemia, which means low blood sugar levels. Jitters, sweating, feeding difficulties - these symptoms indicate this condition. Not getting enough milk often contributes to this issue. To tackle it, ensure the baby receives sufficient milk to maintain proper sugar levels. Closely collaborate with pediatrician for monitoring and treatment approaches.

My 2 month baby child she is very crying ?? countinue only night' time How to treatment
Female | 0
Babies cry frequently, notably at nighttime. Perhaps your little one suffers from colic. While its precise root remains unidentified, colic is widespread and typically resolves independently by 4 months. To comfort your infant, consider gentle rocking motions, calming white noise, or a warm pre-bedtime bath.

Hi doctor my one year baby boy passed hard stools today 5 times what would be the reason. But he is active and playing but he has a running nose and cold... Please advise as I am worried.
Female | 30
Your baby's tummy issues with the cold aren't surprising. Colds produce mucus, and hardening stools are normal. Keep them hydrated: offer liquids, pears, and prunes to ease bowels. Monitor symptoms closely; if concerned, consult experts promptly.

Your baby is experiencing diarrhea. His urine appears reddish, and thick. This might be caused by infection or something he consumed, upsetting his tummy. Ensure he drinks enough breast milk or formula to stay hydrated. If symptoms worsen or continue, consult a pediatrician - it may indicate a serious condition needing medical attention.

Humming while sleeping in a 14-year-old could be a sign of a sleep disorder or simply a harmless habit. It's best to consult a pediatric sleep specialist or an ENT doctor to rule out any underlying issues and get personalized advice.

I have a 1 year old with RSV and her oxygen level is siting at 91% should I be concerned. It dropped to 87% for a split second then shot back up to 91%. She is breathing 26 breathes per minute.
Female | 1
A 91% oxygen level is slightly low for a one-year-old with RSV. This virus makes breathing harder for babies. The dropping oxygen shows her lungs are struggling. Watch her closely to ensure she's comfortable. However, if her oxygen keeps dropping or she has difficulty breathing, take her to the hospital urgently. Ensure she drinks lots of fluids and rests.

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.

My question is about my 40 days old baby boy he fart so many times a day and not passing stool since 3 days
Male | 0
Babies let out gas frequently - it's quite normal, as their digestive system matures. However, if your little one hasn't passed stool in three days, constipation might trouble them. Inadequate milk intake or switching formulas could trigger this issue. Try offering more breastmilk or formula, gently rubbing the tummy area. Should the concern persist, seek guidance from a pediatrician for personalized recommendations.

It is common for babies to cry, but if your 6-month-old is crying constantly, it could be due to colic, hunger, or discomfort. I suggest visiting a pediatrician to get a proper check-up and understand the exact reason.

6 days old baby girl having loose motion 3 times a day can we give sporlac banana flavour powder
Female | 6 days e
Sometimes, babies pass loose stools often. Don't worry, this happens. If your newborn girl has diarrhea thrice daily, an infection or diet change could cause it. Sporlac banana powder may help. It restores good tummy bacteria, and firms up motions. Keep her hydrated - offer breast milk or small water sips frequently. Don't give any other medicine without a doctor's advice. But if diarrhea worsens or continues, see a pediatrician.

My baby is 2.5 month old he is facing poti last 3 days
Male | 2.5 months
Your baby has been having frequent bowel movements over the last 3 days. Infants can go through changes in their stooling patterns from time to time. This may be caused by something they ingested or a minor stomach upset. Ensure that the little one is well-hydrated by giving more breast milk or formula. Should this matter persist or if the infant appears sickly, it would be prudent to seek medical advice from a pediatrician.

Sir ..my baby 7 month complete.Brestfeeding mother can eat mushroom powder it's safe or not safe
Female | 26
It is normally safe to consume mushroom powder while breastfeeding, but only in small amounts. If it starts causing your baby to develop a rash, fussiness, or diarrhea after you eat it, stop eating it. The addition of slight amounts of mushroom powder in your diet is safe for your baby. The reality is that all babies are different, and if you observe any changes, it is better to discard them and talk to your child's pediatrician.

Mera ek 7 years ka beti hi ussko fever or seizure sath mein ata hi
Female | 7
Your concern over your young daughter's health issue is understandable. When high body temperature strikes kids, they may experience a seizure. Kids frequently get fevers which resolve independently. Cooling measures and fever-reducing medicine like acetaminophen help immensely. Seek urgent medical assistance if seizures persist.
