Will my baby recover from low oxygen level?
My baby was born on 15 May 2024 but his oxygen level was very low and he did not even cry. Now he is on ventilator support. It has been 5 days. Can you tell us whether the health of the baby will improve and what will happen next? What problems will the baby face? And how many days will it take for the baby to become mature?

Low levels of oxygen at birth can cause a variety of problems. Ventilation support will be necessary to help the infant breathe. It’s a difficult time but with good care the baby’s condition should improve. There might be complications such as lung issues or delays in development. The baby will need more time to grow and mature than usual – usually about 40 weeks from when they were due for delivery.

My daughter is very aggressive and never listen. Always tantrums
Female | 5
Consult a child psychologist or pediatrician. Your daughter's aggressive behavior and frequent tantrums may be due to underlying emotional or behavioral issues that need professional evaluation. Early intervention can be very helpful in managing and improving these behaviors.

My baby suffering from fever cough and cold from past 1day and she hve 100 temperature fever.
Female | 1
Babies get sick sometimes, it's normal. Your little one's fever, cough and cold likely stem from a virus. That 100-degree fever means her body battles infection. Ensure she rests up, hydrates well. If her doctor says okay, give acetaminophen for fever relief. However, if symptoms drag on or intensify, it's wise to have her pediatrician examine her.

Male | 1
Kids feel lousy when sick. Your child's fever and lack of eating/drinking could mean an infection like a cold or flu. Sometimes, kids don't want food when unwell. Offer lots of liquids - water, juice mixed with water, sips often. Give small meals that digest easily. If the fever is high or your child seems ill, see a pediatrician.

I have 15 months baby can I use spasan Noel tablet
Female | 22
Giving a 15-month-old baby Spasmonel tablets is dangerous. These pills are not for babies and might bring harm to them. In the case that your baby is having stomach issues or is feeling some kind of discomfort, it's better to use some mild tools such as holding him/her tenderly, giving water, or attempting a warm bath. Get advice from a pediatrician if symptoms do not improve or get worse.

My daughter is 12.5 years old and 165 cm tall. She already has got her period last year when she was 11. Father is 5 feet 8 inch and mother s height is 5 feet 2 inches. I'm worried if she has stopped growing. Can she get few more inches. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
Female | 12
Girls her age, 12.5, often keep on growing for some more years. Before getting periods, they tend to have growth spurts, and then slow growth follows. Since your girl had her period at 11, there might be more growing left. Things like her genes, eating well, and being healthy affect growth. Keep encouraging healthy foods, enough sleep, and exercise for her. If worried, chatting with her doctor could help.

ADHD means he struggles to focus, stays restless, and acts impulsively. Many kids his age face this challenge. Things like genes, brain growth, and surroundings play a role. With therapy, counseling, and sometimes meds, ADHD symptoms can be better managed. Work closely with school and doctors to plan best for your son.

I want to know about pediatric dermatologist,my 3 and half year old grandson having Alopecia Aereta, he is downsyndrom boy
Male | 3
Your grandson suffers from Alopecia Areata. Hair falls out in circular bald patches. It can impact eyebrows or lashes too. It's harmless but visually concerning. Usually, it occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles. But the good news is, hair often regrows naturally over time. To aid regrowth, dermatologists may prescribe steroid injections or creams. Consult a pediatric dermatologist for guidance and optimal treatment options.

This is the kind of disorder that is related to movement and body balance. This is because of the brain's improper development or damage that might occur during the early period of life. The signs are stiff muscles, poor coordination, and walking difficulties. The treatment involves therapies like physical, occupational, and speech therapy that helps to develop proper mobility and communication skills. Working closely with healthcare providers to come up with a personalized treatment plan for your child is crucial.

My son is 1 he has been having diarrhoea but like small pieces off poo and wet but a lot redness around the bum it really hurts him
Male | 1
The loose poop you talked about is called diarrhea. Tummy bugs or foods he can't digest well could be the cause. The red area around his bottom is likely from frequent pooping which can irritate the skin. Make sure he drinks lots of water and other fluids to stay hydrated. You can also put a barrier cream on the red area to protect his skin. If the diarrhea keeps happening, it's best to take him to a pediatrician for a check-up.

My baby is 21 months old. Doctor suggested to take echo for my baby and congenital ASD hole with size of 2.1cm was diagnosed. Will this hole gets closed automatically or any surgery needed for this?
Female | 2
Your baby's health situation seems concerning. The echo test finding a hole, an ASD, is worrisome. This hole doesn't always close naturally as babies grow up. Sometimes, surgery becomes necessary to fix it. Watch for trouble breathing or poor growth as warning signs. Speak to your doctor about the ideal treatment path for your child.

My baby not eat anything.
Female | 16 months
Babies sometimes have trouble eating. This could be due to teething or illness, or just feeling uninterested. Offer healthy foods in small portions often. Be patient, but don't pressure eating. If the issue persists, consult your pediatrician. They can guide your baby's specific situation.

An ear infection caused by bacteria or viruses is the most common reason. Colds can sometimes cause this too. To help, give pain medicine and use a warm cloth on the ear. If earaches persist, take your child to see a pediatrician for an examination.

Male | 5
It seems your son is unwell. Fever in children is usually seen along with infections that have germs as the causative agent. The body may bring fever to get rid of these diseases. Be certain that he is well hydrated first, eats nutritious food, and rests accordingly. You should consult a pediatrician if the fever persists.

Good morning everyone I need advise please. Sihle was playing in the lounge doing mini handstands then she fell on her mouth and I heard screaming. After running to see why she was crying I then saw her baby top tooth came out with the root I then rinsed her mouth with water. I need to know will it grow again once her adult teeth come in cause it came out with the root
Female | 3
When a baby tooth dislodges along with its root, it usually doesn't regrow. However, there's no need to be afraid. In due course, adult teeth will replace the missing one. Meanwhile, monitor for any discomfort or infection signs. Maintain oral hygiene and provide soft edibles. If worried, consulting a dentist ensures all is well.
