Answered on 26th June '24
Colds are quite common in infants as their immune systems develop. A runny or stuffy nose is the primary symptom. The recurrence stems from his immature immunity against germs. To prevent future colds, maintain a hygienic environment, practice frequent handwashing, and limit exposure to ill individuals. Nutritious dietary intake and adequate rest can bolster his immunity. However, if the cold persists or concerning symptoms arise, consult a pediatrician.

Can I give atarax 2mg/ml syrup to my 17 months old baby for skin allergy with a dosage of 2.5ml twice a day
Male | 17 months
Reddish spots, itchy feelings, and bumpy rashes can show up on baby's skin from allergies. Causes could be bug bites or foods their body doesn't like. Doctors sometimes give Atarax syrup with 2mg medicine per ml to help make those allergy signs go away. For babies around 17 months old, a common dose is 2.5ml twice each day. But you should always follow exactly what the doctor says for treating your little one's skin allergy issue best.

This could be related to the liver, gallbladder, or a change in diet. The stool color might change if your baby isn't eating his snacks. To be safe, monitor your baby's stool color, and if the change persists, consult your pediatrician. Keep offering a variety of foods to find out what your baby likes to eat.

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.

Rashes on an infant's body may result from various factors - allergies, infections, or skin irritants. The itching and crying could indicate discomfort. To provide relief, use gentle products without fragrances, keeping the skin clean and dry. However, if these measures prove ineffective, it's advisable to seek medical advice for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

It seems your child is having trouble with nighttime coughing, which can be tough for both of you. This coughing might be due to throat or chest irritation. You can try using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, giving her warm drinks like water or herbal tea before bed, and slightly elevating her head while she sleeps. These steps may help reduce the coughing.

Your baby's cough for 3 days is concerning. The syrup and drops are helpful for the relief, and cold symptoms. Since your little one is very young, we'll skip adding more medicine right now. Keep your baby comfortable and warm. Offer lots of fluids. Continue using the prescribed meds. If the cough worsens or persists, you can consider an additional medicine. Closely monitor your baby. Follow the medicine instructions carefully.

If you're concerned about your 1.5 year old son's genital development, it's essential to consult a pediatrician or pediatric urologist for an evaluation. Small or retracting testicles may be normal in some cases, but it's crucial to rule out conditions like undescended testicles or hernias.

Babies sometimes experience a mild temperature increase after a headbath. This is normal, caused by their body cooling down slightly. If your baby seems active and well otherwise, there's typically no cause for concern. However, ensure they drink enough fluids and dress them warmly. Consult a pediatrician if the fever continues or worsens.
