What should I do for my 7-day-old baby's fever and thin potty?

My baby is 7 days old girl and she is facing fever 100.6 degree f. And thin potty. What can I do please suggest

Answered on 24th June '24

Fevers in infants can indicate that their bodies are fighting infection while loose stool might signal a problem in the tummy. Ensure she’s getting enough fluids either through breast milk or formula feeding. Dress her lightly and give her a lukewarm bath to reduce the fever. You should also contact a pediatrician for additional advice.

My child got vaccinated and got swelling on injected area ..what should i understand by this that vaccination is done properly or not and how should i treat my child to get rid of pain and swelling.

Male | 5

Swelling, and pain at the­ injection area - this is normal for kids after vaccination. The­ body responds by building immunity. Cold packs soothe discomfort; acetaminophe­n helps too. Persistent swe­lling warrants checking with the doctor. But ge­nerally, these re­actions indicate the vaccine is working as inte­nded.

Diarrhea can lead to dehydration, especially in children, so providing fluids is necessary. You can give your child water but it's essential to do it in small, frequent sips rather than large amounts at once. You can also give ORS to help prevent dehydration.

4and half year old kid, girl, in blood report CRP 21.6, getting fever frequently, head is more warm then rest of the body. git prescribed Azithromycin 200 twice a day, Cefopodoxime 50mg thrice a day, and for fever Paracetamol with Mefanamic acid as per requirement. Its about 3-4 days, but no improvement in fever, and now kid is not allowing to touch his stomach.Several vomits were during Macpod(cefopodoxime tablet) until replaced with oral suspension. Suggestions requested for food and eatings and when we should look further to be worried?

Female | 4

The fever and hot head might indicate an infection, while the vomiting and stomach ache could be from the medication. Let's switch to a different antibiotic and add probiotics to ease the stomach issues. Keep offering light, bland foods like crackers, bananas, and rice. If symptoms don't improve or get worse, further tests may be needed.

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.

My son drink 30ml of Nyquil instead of 15ml. He is 8yr old. weight 44lb and 4ft height.

Male | 8

Medicine­ is crucial but you must be extreme­ly careful with doses. If your child takes too much, it can make­ them sick. Your son drank double the re­commended Nyquil amount. He will like­ly feel drowsy, dizzy, and have an upse­t stomach or headache. The ove­rdose happened be­cause the medicine­ was too strong for his body size. Give him water right away. Watch him care­fully for other symptoms. If he see­ms unwell, don't hesitate to ge­t medical help.

It's important to have your baby seen by a pediatric dermatologist, as scabies can cause severe itching and discomfort. Scabies is treatable with medications, but proper diagnosis and treatment by a specialist are essential.
