My son 9 yrs old. He does competitive swimming. In last Feb, after xray doctor has told that he has 50% enlargement of adenoid. He allowed to do swimming. Child suffer cold almost once every month. Today also we checked thru endoscopy. It is still 50% as per doctor. Should we continue swimming or we need to stop..we need second opinion

Sometimes having enlarged adenoids can make them more susceptible to cold. Perhaps swimming is a factor that irritates his adenoids. It is important to ensure his health is not sacrificed for his swimming hobby. I suggest giving a short break to him swimming and observing whether his adenoids get better. This might help him get less affected by cold.

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.

My 4 year old has had a stomach flu since Saturday, she was vomiting up until Monday night and has had barely appetite, she is very thirsty even though she stopped vomiting and has been drinking a lot of pedialite and water, no vomiting or diarrhea since Monday night… why is she still so thirsty?????
Female | 4
When someone has stomach flu, their body loses lots of fluids. Even though vomiting ceased, her body might still be trying to regain lost fluids, causing increased thirst. Continue providing Pedialyte and water to help her rehydrate. If she doesn't improve or struggles keeping fluids down, contact a pediatrician.

Hi My daughter is suffering from throat pain and coughing
Female | 5
Colds or throat infections commonly cause sore throat and coughing. Our body reacts when we're sick. It makes our throats hurt and causes coughing. Give her lots of water, rest, and warm soup. These aid recovery. If she doesn't improve soon, visit a pediatrician.

My son 4 and half years old , weigh 14.5kg, allergy's happened after swimming in beach. levocetirizine dihydrochloride 0.5 mg/ml what dosage should take?
Male | 4
From what you say, your son may be experiencing an allergic reaction after swimming. Allergies may be responsible for the symptoms such as itching, rash, sneezing, or difficulty breathing. Levocetirizine dihydrochloride is a medicine for allergies. The initial dosage for your son, who weighs 8 kg, will be 3-4 mL. However, it is always better to seek the advice of a pediatrician before determining the accurate dosage.

I am hbe trait ,my wife has hbe disease...she is 3 months pregnant.what is the probability in our baby
Female | 33
The risk of the baby carrying the disease goes as follows: 25% chance of inheriting the disease from you, 50% of being a carrier even though the baby will be unaffected, and 25% of being totally okay. Some of these manifestations are tiredness and growth delay in the affected persons. Regular check-ups throughout the pregnancy are important in order to watch over the baby's health. Genetic counseling should be considered among supportive measures taken to fully understand prognosis and know the best treatment options that are available to you. Your doctor should always be consulted before receiving any medical advice to ensure the best care options for your wife and baby. Your early identification will contribute to it.

6 month old baby having fever and loose stools from since yesterday evening.but she was acitive. Righ now her temperature was 101'F. I had paracetomol drops 150 mg. How many ml or drops i need give her? Her weight is not checking. Her loose stools are not too much.she taking her feeds is normal. Vaiding urine normal.
Female | 6 month
The fever of 101°F can be controlled with paracetamol drops. I guess your daughter is 6 months old. The doctor's manual indicates 10-15 mg per kg of her weight, but since she was not weighed, I am dispensing a general rule or you have to consult your pediatrician for specificity.
The soft bowel movements and fever could be caused by a slight viral infection. Make sure she remains hydrated and keeps up with her usual meals. If you still have symptoms, please visit the doctor.

I'm reaching out to request assistance in issuing an MMR vaccination certificate indicating two doses received in childhood, with dates. Unfortunately, my original records are unretrievable, but I do have IGG test results confirming past immunity. This is solely for admission for MS purpose. Could you please help?
Male | 23
The MMR vaccine prevents three serious diseases measles, mumps, and rubella, thus it is of great essentiality. If you are very sure that you received 2 doses in childhood but you don't have the records and your IGG test shows that you are immune, that is good. You must get a certificate for your admission to the MS program. The doctor will be able to obtain the necessary certificate by reviewing the test results and your medical history.

Male | 6
It sounds like your child has been experiencing a series of distressing symptoms, including skin rashes, abdominal pain, and general discomfort. These could be linked to allergies, infections, or gastrointestinal issues. The scrotum pain and redness in the eyes may suggest inflammation or irritation, possibly from an allergic reaction. It's essential to maintain hydration and follow medical advice on medications. Observing closely for any changes and ensuring a suitable environment can help. If symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment.

Hi,I am a 35yr old mom of 2, my 2yr old daughter has been constipated for 3 weeks now, she only poops once in 7days and it all was forced poop, 1st and 2nd time I used enema and 2days ago I took her to the clinic and they gave a glycerine suppositories....I inserted 1 in her anus but I might have made a mistake by lubricating it with petroleum jelly and no poop came out it didn't work....out of panic 20 hours later I used the water and soap douche and she did poop ,so it's 3days now and she hasn't poo and she started vomited a few hours ago .
Female | 2
In a state when a child does not poop for an extended period, it may bring a feeling of uneasiness and cause vomiting in the child's body. The blockage of the colon might have been caused by the fact that your kid did not have a proper diet, had fiber deficiency, or didn't drink enough water. Give her to eat more fruits, and vegetables, and drink water.

My baby has tongue tie problem
Female | 2
Tongue tie happens when a baby's tongue is held down by a small piece of tissue. Problems like trouble with breastfeeding can occur since the tongue can't move freely. This issue develops if the tissue restricting the tongue is too short. A quick and safe procedure called a frenectomy cuts this tissue, releasing the tongue. Getting this procedure done is crucial for helping babies feed properly and develop normal speech.

My 1.7 year old boy sleep stomach side and move legs why
Other | 35
Sleeping on the tummy, legs moving - it is typical for a 1.7-year-old. They're getting more control over their little bodies, so the position feels comfy. And that leg motion? It might be self-soothing. Be sure their sleep space is safe from any risky objects. If you're worried, chat with your pediatrician about it.

My 11 year old girl is getting cramps on her middle finger atlist three times in a month and i have notice all her fingers is turning dark in color
Female | 11
The middle finger cramps and the darkening of all fingers sound uncomfortable. The reason is there may not be enough blood flow in the fingers. One common cause is Raynaud's disease, which is a disorder that affects blood flow. If the issue gets worse, talk to an orthopedist.

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.

How much ml of water and formula milk should be given in the hole day to 11months baby
Male | 11 months
Your 11-month-old requires around 750-900 ml of water and formula daily. If they don't consume enough, signs could appear as fussiness, lack of weight gain, and fewer wet diapers. This helps maintain proper hydration and satisfaction levels. If you have concerns, consult your pediatrician promptly for guidance.

My son 4yrs old suffering with Dengue and black motion.is it dangerous?
Male | 4
Your son's ailments sound concerning. Dengue fever, spread by mosquitoes, causes severe illness. Black motion likely indicates gastrointestinal bleeding, which can dangerously lower blood pressure. Ensure he remains hydrated, rests adequately, and seeks prompt medical attention for treatment monitoring.

Dear sir/mam. My baby is facing continuously coughing and my self my wife also facing this cough past one week but still we suffer this cough
Female | 4
Babies often cough. It's normal and happens for many reasons. Infections cause coughing. So do allergies. Signs of coughing: sore throat, runny nose, tired. Stay hydrated. Rest lots. Don't breathe smoke. Use humidifier or saline drops. The cough might not go soon. If it lasts, see a pediatrician.

Female | 26
Your baby boy likely has a pancreatic duct stricture. In simple terms, this means part of his pancreas tube is narrowed. Symptoms like tummy pain or eating troubles can occur. It may be from a birth issue or past inflammation causing the narrowing. Surgery might be needed if it causes major problems. Your best approach is to discuss it with your pediatrician to decide the proper plan.
