Baby Tongue Tie: Causes and Solutions
My baby has tongue tie problem

General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Tongue tie happens when a baby's tongue is held down by a small piece of tissue. Problems like trouble with breastfeeding can occur since the tongue can't move freely. This issue develops if the tissue restricting the tongue is too short. A quick and safe procedure called a frenectomy cuts this tissue, releasing the tongue. Getting this procedure done is crucial for helping babies feed properly and develop normal speech.

For my child there is fever the body temperature is not coming down since 2 days
Female | 6
If your child's fever doesn't go away after two days, it might indicate their body is fighting an infection. Besides a high temperature, they may feel tired, have a headache, and lose their appetite. Ensure they stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and consider using children's acetaminophen or ibuprofen as directed. If the fever lasts more than a few days or other concerning symptoms appear, contact your pediatrician.

I am writing to seek your advice regarding my 3-year-old child. I have noticed small lumps on both sides of her neck, and I am concerned about whether this could indicate a serious health issue.
Female | 3
Sometimes, small lumps in the neck area are caused by lymph nodes. This is a normal response to viruses or allergies. These swellings occur when the immune system is fighting with the body. Normally such cases will be harmless and will be resolved once the body takes care of itself but it is always best to see a pediatrician to get a thorough checkup done. They may offer you a solution and, if it is needed, the right course of treatment.

My 6 years old son is coughing very badly and unable to sleep. From past 4 to 5 days
Male | 6
This could be a common cold or pesky allergies causing the prolonged coughing fit. Hydration and rest are key - make sure he's drinking plenty of water and getting ample sleep. Consider a humidifier for his room; it might just soothe that bothersome cough. However, if the coughing persists or worsens, don't hesitate to consult your pediatrician.

Female | 2
Based on your description, your daughter may have recurrent fever syndrome. This condition involves frequent episodes of high body temperature occurring in a regular pattern. It can result from various causes, such as infections, inflammation, or genetic factors. Since she also has a sore throat, a viral infection is likely the cause. Ensure she gets plenty of rest, drinks a lot of water, and takes fever-reducing medication if she has a fever. Make an appointment with a pediatrician as soon as possible and get her checked regularly.

Your son has the usual cold. The runny nose and cough are caused by a virus. You could provide him with a child's medication that has acetaminophen, which is good for coughing and fever, as for his age. Ensure that he doesn't miss out on fluids and rest. It is advisable not to use over-the-counter cold medicines for children.

I 27 month old daughters urine has been smelling very strong lately. It has an overpowering smell of bamboo shoots.
Female | 27 months
Kids may sometimes have stinky pee. Some foods and drinks like asparagus make that happen. But if it constantly smells strong like bamboo shoots, it might mean your child has a urinary infection. Look for other signs like fever or pain peeing. Be sure your daughter stays hydrated by drinking plenty of water. And if that funky smell keeps lingering for days, then it's wise to get her checked out by a urologist.

Female | 0
At 2 months, babies should be given formula milk as their main drink. Cow’s milk lacks important nutrients needed at this stage and can cause issues like indigestion, anemia, or allergies. Stick with formula milk until your baby is about 1 year old. Please talk to your pediatrician for more guidance.

How can i relieve my baby from colic pain and gas. I give him colimex drops but are of no use.
Male | 2.5 months
Babies can get colic and gas. Colic is when babies cry intensely. Gas makes babies uncomfortable. It happens when they swallow air while feeding. Or, they have a sensitive tummy. Try massaging their stomach gently. Burp them frequently during feedings too. Keep their surroundings quiet and calm. Don't overfeed them quickly. Keep them upright after feedings. Warm baths and gentle rocking might help soothe them too. With these tips, your baby should feel better soon.
