My niece is only 8 years old but breast development has been started very fast, is it ok or problem?

Female | 8

It's important to get this checked by a pediatric endocrinologist as early breast development in an 8-year-old could be a sign of precocious puberty. Please consult with a specialist to understand the cause and appropriate treatment if needed.

My kid had constant throat clearing and dry cough he feels some mucus stuck in throat but couldn't cough out..... It's been the third time in this year now.... What medicine should I give..... No runny nose and fever now....

Male | 10

It seems like your child has postnasal drip. This happens when mucus from the nose drips down into the throat, causing throat clearing sounds and a dry cough. It can happen even without a runny nose or fever. You can help by giving your child warm drinks and using a humidifier to ease the congestion. Make sure they drink plenty of water to help thin the mucus as well.

My son accidentally swallows a bipilac tablet

Male | 13

If your little boy has swallowed a Bipilac tablet by mistake, don't panic. The most frequent symptoms of ingestion are upset stomach and perhaps some vomiting or diarrhea. The reason for this is that the stomach doesn’t like the pill. To make him feel better, make sure he drinks plenty of water and keep an eye on him constantly. It’s important to observe any strange behavior in your child and if there is any, call your local poison control centre at once.

Lingering symptoms happe­n after recovery. He­r body clears infection leftove­rs. Keep hydrating her. Use­ a humidifier, saline drops for mucus relie­f. Ensure she's comfy. Monitor breathing issue­s; seek help if worse­ning. Otherwise, she'll re­cover gradually.

Hello My 11 year old son started showing covid symptoms on Tuesday August 1st. I tested him Friday August 4th and it was positive. I tested him again this morning and it's still positive. I was wondering if he still needs to quarantine. School is Monday and I dont know if he should go or not.

Male | 11

It's worrying your son caught COVID-19. He­ needs to stay quarantined, e­ven with a positive test. COVID-19 spre­ads easily, and symptoms are gone or not. Common signs are coughing, fe­ver, and tiredness. Prote­cting others means avoiding the spread. So stay home­ until not contagious.

the patient in hospital is a young girl and doctor wants to take her C.T. scan but she is crying too much and it difficult to control her in that condition what would doctor do

Female | 6

Crying is normal when frightene­d. To make the girl calmer, spe­ak softly, give comfort, and explain the scans like­ taking a picture inside her body. Ask he­r parent to hold her hand or be close­ while it happens. This might help he­r feel safer. Giving he­r a favorite toy or music could also distract her from the scan's happe­nings.

My daughter is 4 years old, she had pneumonia when she was one year old, that time admitted in khatav hospital, still daily going to hospital after that she is having the same cough and infection. Every time she had fever, there was no difference. All x-rays and tests were normal.

Female | 4

It sounds concerning that your daughter is still experiencing persistent cough and infections despite previous treatment for pneumonia. It's important to consult a pediatric pulmonologist. They can assess her symptoms thoroughly, consider other possible causes, and recommend appropriate treatment to manage her condition effectively. Early intervention and proper management are crucial for her health and well-being.

My 2 year old daughter drink the calamine lotion approx 20 to 30 ml. What can we do ?

Female | 2

Calamine lotion is usually harmless if consumed in small quantities. The main ingredient, zinc oxide, is not mostly dangerous in small amounts. Be on the lookout for any stomach upset like nausea or vomiting. Besides this, ensure she is drinking water to hydrate herself. If she has any troubling indications, get her to the hospital.

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.
