I am writing to seek your advice regarding my 3-year-old child. I have noticed small lumps on both sides of her neck, and I am concerned about whether this could indicate a serious health issue.
Female | 3
Sometimes, small lumps in the neck area are caused by lymph nodes. This is a normal response to viruses or allergies. These swellings occur when the immune system is fighting with the body. Normally such cases will be harmless and will be resolved once the body takes care of itself but it is always best to see a pediatrician to get a thorough checkup done. They may offer you a solution and, if it is needed, the right course of treatment.

My baby has small pimple on penis
Male | 2 years
It's quite common for infants to develop small bumps on their skin, including the genital area. These could be caused by factors such as irritation from diapers, a minor infection, or even normal skin changes. Generally, such spots are benign and usually resolve on their own. Maintaining cleanliness and ensuring the area stays dry can aid healing. However, if the bump persists, becomes red or swollen, or if your child appears uncomfortable, it would be wise to consult a pediatrician. They can provide a thorough assessment and ensure everything is alright.

Male | 4
Kids often don't have an appetite and get sick. This can happen when they're growing up fast. Infections, bad food choices, or even stress might cause it. Make sure your son eats healthy stuff like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Little meals and snacks work better than big ones sometimes. He needs water and rest too. If it keeps happening, talk to the doctor about what's going on and what to do next.

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.

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.

Hair problems. Age 1year 3month. Why Not hair growth.
Female | 1.3 years
This is due to the combination of genetics, diet, and underpinning health issues. A possible symptom could be the loss of hair or the presence of very thin hair. A healthy diet that includes vitamins, especially Vitamin D and B, will help. Lastly, the gentle massage of your baby's scalp during his bath can also improve blood circulation. Hair growth in children can be quite different for every child and might need some patience from the parents. In the case of continuous worrying, we suggest that you might want to see a pediatrician or a dermatologist and have a personal chat with them about it.

What can I give a girl having high temperature
Female | 5
Fevers are the body's reaction to fighting off germs. Drink lots of water. Take acetaminophen for the fever. If the fever persists for more than 3 days, visit a doctor. That's important because high fevers can be worrisome. A mild fever under 102 Fahrenheit is okay and common for kids during minor illnesses. But anything over 103 Fahrenheit means getting medical attention. Keeping fluids up and medication helps kids feel better during fevers.

my child is having crt 12.95 mg/L and pus cells in urinal microscopic exam 12-14/,hpf
Female | 9
A urinary tract infection may be causing your child's symptoms, based on the test results. Pain or discomfort during urination, frequent urges to pee, and feeling unwell are typical signs. The presence of pus cells and elevated CRT levels indicate an infection. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids and consult a pediatrician for antibiotic treatment, as that's usually recommended. Though short symptoms prevail, antibiotics will likely resolve the issue.

Premature babies are often slow in gaining weight. Make sure that he is eating well and that he is getting enough nutrients. You can speak with a pediatrician to discuss the possibility of a change in his feeding schedule or the use of specialized formulas to enable him to gain weight continuously.

Your sister might experience anxiety. Anxiety causes shortness of breath, trembling, and disrupted sleep. It also affects appetite, leaving one feeling weak. When the body is stressed, it impacts our well-being and eating habits. A crucial step is helping her relax. Simple activities like deep breathing, calming music, or enjoyable hobbies can soothe her mind. Ensure the eats well, even if it's small, frequent meals. Encourage healthy snacks like fruits, veggies, and nuts. If her condition doesn't improve, it's advisable to consult the doctor again.
