Baby Fell from Bed: Need Doctor?
My baby is 3 months old and had a fall from bed 16 inch height. Should I consult a doctor ?
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Sixteen inches is not high but keep an eye out. Your baby may cry hard, sleep much, vomit, or act strange. These signs mean check with a pediatrician right away. Continuous crying, sleepiness, throwing up, or odd behaviors after a fall need medical attention.

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.

My 7 years daughter has fever since 3 days now it is not and she has inside fever and she has rashes on her body 4/ 5 place and she has sore throat. She is coughing and she has little bit Headache also. Her urine is slightly yellow.
Female | 7
Your daughter's fever, rash, throat pain, cough, and headache suggest a viral illness, possibly influenza. Dehydration causes yellow urine. Ensure she consumes ample fluids and rests well. Administer fever-reducing medicines if necessary. However, seek medical evaluation if symptoms worsen or don't improve, as viruses can sometimes lead to complications.

So I have a 4 month old baby so he has bleeding the brain would it be possible that when my 3 daughters where jumping on my bed and my 4 month old baby got his head stuck between the wall and bed when they started bouncing that the bed and the wall would make his brain start bleeding ??
Male | 4 months
It is unlikely that the bed and wall incident alone caused your baby's brain to bleed, but it is important to seek medical advice immediately. Brain bleeding in infants can have serious causes. Please consult a pediatric neurologist to understand the situation and get proper care for your baby.

Female | 2
Rashes often appear on the baby's bottoms. This is common and not serious. Diapers cause wetness, and irritating skin. To relieve rash, change diapers regularly. Apply gentle baby cream. Let the skin air out sometimes. However, if the rash worsens or persists, consult a pediatrician.

My son has had three nosebleeds today, two last week (both in the same day). I don't believe he's had a head injury on either occasion. He gets them every now and again but not this regular. He is not a nose picker.
Male | 8
Your son's nosebleeds seem concerning. Nosebleeds occur for many reasons. Dryness inside the nose may crack, and bleed. Allergies or temperature changes too. Ensure he drinks plenty of water for moist nasal passages. If bleeding persists, consult a pediatrician. Don't hesitate to get it checked. Frequent nosebleeds warrant medical attention. Minor ones may resolve independently. But observing is crucial, especially if heavy.

Female | 1
It's good that your daughter is responsive and speaks some words. However, not sitting properly or stiffening her legs could indicate developmental issues. I recommend visiting a pediatric neurologist for a thorough evaluation and guidance on appropriate interventions.

Meri beti 3 month ki hai wo lectozen 1 farmula feed p hai pr wo jb potty krti hai to uska colour ekdm mitti jaisa rhta hai kya ye nrml h
Female | 0
When baby formula poops look muddy, it might signal constipation. This happens when poop stays too long in the intestines. Not enough water or concentrated formula could be the cause. Try giving water between feedings or ask the doctor about adjusting the formula. This should help the baby poop comfortably!

Hi am Claire 25 years I gave birth to a baby boy but with brain damage.He is 8months now and he can sit coz he can’t balance his neck
Male | 0
This means that the child could have low muscle tone i.e. hypotonia which could be an indication of brain damage. Other examples include delays in learning new tactics and staying strong like rolling and crawling. It's crucial to get a pediatrician's advice to get the optimal treatment

My Daughter is 2 years 47 days old, she has been struggling with stool passing from last one year. At time she can pass it without any struggle but at times she could not. We have consulted multiple doctors but couldn't get a permanent solution. Everytime we visit a new doctor she starts passing her stool easily for next one or two weeks, but after two weeks the prescribed medications from the doctor stops working and we had to go for another doctor or we have to use Suppositories. We have been struggling with this issue from almost a year and have been using Suppositories or visiting different doctor. Please suggest how this could be fixed, also let us know if this is a serious issue. Will this get fixed with passage of time as my daughter reaches the age of 4 or 5 years. Thank you
Female | 2 years 47 days
Your daughter seems to be going through a challenging phase where she sometimes struggles with passing stool. There could have been various reasons for this like diet, less water intake, or maybe some muscle problems. It is a good thing that you have been taking doctors' advice; however, it is essential to detect the root cause of the problem. You can try giving her fiber-rich foods, like fruits, and veggies, to her and ensure she drinks enough water. Keep in touch with your pediatrician to find the best way to take care of your daughter's discomfort.

My 22 Months old baby boy have minor blood spot in potty. Is this harmfull?
Male | 22 Months
This can happen for a few things. He might have pooped hard and that caused some very small cuts. Or he could have a minor sickness. Make sure he drinks lots of water. Give him food with lots of fiber like apples and carrots. If the blood spots do not go away soon, or if he acts sick, take him to see a pediatrician.

Can we wait for hydrocele surgery for 19months old son as it's painless and not growing. It will be difficult to manage him post surgery as he is non verbal. Also we think it may resolve on its own.
Male | 19months
Hydrocele is when fluid accumulates around the testicle and produce swelling in the scrotum. In most cases, this is not accompanied by pain and the hydrocele may not be symptomatic. Sometimes, hydroceles can resolve on their own without treatment. Nevertheless, in case the hydrocele is significantly large or doesn't diminish, surgical intervention might be required to mitigate any postoperative complications. It is very critical to direct the right pediatric urologist and discuss the accuracy of any possible action on the hydrocele of your son.

My baby girl has whitish uvula this is confusing me is it normal in Newborn kindly help me with it
Female | 1.5 months
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.

Hi, my baby was born without the soft spot on his head should I be concerned?
Male | 1
Babies often arrive without the soft spot called a fontanelle. This happens when head bones join early before birth. Generally, it's fine, as long as the baby grows well. Though you'll want to mention it to your pediatrician. They can check that development is on track. If any issues arise, the doctor will advise next steps.
