It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin cannot be easily retracted. This is common in young boys. Often, it resolves naturally as you grow. It's usually not a concern unless it causes pain, inflammation, or difficulty with hygiene. Maintaining cleanliness is important. I recommend talking to a pediatrician for personalized guidance. They can assess if any treatment is necessary and offer the best options.

I found a brown lecluse on my 17th month old sons leg and now I'm not sure if he got bit or not. I do have a picture.
Male | 1
This spider bite may show pain, redness, or itching with a blister forming at the site. You will need to wash the bite location well with some soap and water then put on an ice pack so that it does not swell too much. Keep an eye on it for a few days after any other problems appear call a pediatrician.

Baby having frequent fever in every 6 hours ,blood report suggest infection higher still in 5th day having fever
Male | 3
Fevers regularly happen in babies. However, lasting 5 days with 6-hour intervals suggests potential issues. Blood reports confirmed an infection presence. While viruses or bacteria could trigger fevers, medical evaluation becomes crucial. Take your baby to a pediatrician promptly. The physician can diagnose and prescribe suitable treatment, helping your little one recover swiftly.

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.

My baby is 2 months old, he has some symptoms , we tested in the lab , stool and urine he has infamentory and the test of calprotectin was 67 , the sleep time is short , he can only sleep around 10 hrs per day , during drinking milk he was drinking too much milk but he was drinking like hate the milk , in the first he has a normal type about 2 weeks ago i changed the milk to allergy milk , but nothing changed please help me
Male | 27
Your child seems to have an inflamed gut, making them grumpy and restless overnight. The calprotectin number, sixty-seven, signals inflammation there. Since the hypoallergenic formula didn't improve things, maybe it's not food-related. Definitely consult your pediatrician about next steps and solutions.

I doubt my baby swallowed a piece of glass
Male | 1
Glass in the mouth is a serious thing. You need to watch your baby closely. Glass can scratch or cut their insides. Look for choking, drooling, and discomfort. If their tummy hurts or they have trouble breathing, that's not good. Take them to see a doctor right away in these cases.

My 2 years old kid having heavy fever, cough and cold, fever is high
Male | 2
Your child feels unwell, probably due to germs. A fever means their body battles an infection. An illness involves a cough, runny nose and fever. Ensure your child hydrates well and sleeps adequately. Medication, like acetaminophen, can reduce a fever. Should symptoms persist or worsen considerably, consult a pediatrician promptly for professional medical advice.

My son has had mucus in his throat for about three year
Male | 17
Your son's been having mucus for three years - that's not normal. Mucus can mean allergies, infections, irritants. He might cough, clear his throat, swallow a lot. Drink water, use a humidifier, stay away from smoke.

My baby girl has whitish uvula this is confusing me is it normal in Newborn kindly help me with it
Female | 1.5 months
A whitish uvula in newborns is perfectly normal, which is the small dangly thing that hangs in the back of the throat. This can be caused by the buildup of milk or mucus. If your baby is not having any issues with breathing or feeding, then there is usually no reason to worry. Simply after it. If your baby is having trouble breathing or feeding, get in touch with a pediatrician.

My baby got pee’s problem in this few days cause before this he will pee full of diapers every 6-8 hours..but this 2-3 days no pee’s at all got just few drops..dont want to drink milk always crying a day and night..how can i solve this problem?
Male | 2
Your baby's trouble peeing is worrying. Infrequent, small puddles aren't normal. Dehydration or infection could explain it. Few wet diapers raise red flags for babies. Even if reluctant, keep giving milk and water often. Have a pediatrician examine the issue promptly.

My baby is 10months old. Recently from 1 week onwards he is going to poop for almost 4times per day. If he eats something he goes for poop. Is it any issue?
Male | 1
A variety of factors such as teething, unfamiliar foods, or infections like a tummy bug - can cause the change in bowel movements in infants. Keep a record of the baby's excretion, and Ensure that your baby is hydrated. If this is your worry, it is better to consult a pediatrician for better advice.

Recurrent fever could be many reasons! It may, however, be the flu, which may not be the case here. It is very essential to get your doctor on board to determine the factor that is behind the condition. Your pediatrician might recommend tests to find the most appropriate treatment.

Hi, my baby was born without the soft spot on his head should I be concerned?
Male | 1
Babies often arrive without the soft spot called a fontanelle. This happens when head bones join early before birth. Generally, it's fine, as long as the baby grows well. Though you'll want to mention it to your pediatrician. They can check that development is on track. If any issues arise, the doctor will advise next steps.

Best formula milk fr 0 to 6 mnth baby
Female | 26
Deciding on the best infant formula for your baby's health and well-being is a major decision. During the first 6 months of life, you should give him a complete nutrient that contains essential vitamins and minerals. Try to avoid formulas for babies that contain corn syrup, high fructose syrup, or sucrose. Obesity and type 2 diabetes are two of the possible health problems that will cause serious damage to our kids.

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.

Female | 4
Fevers in kids are typically caused by infections such as colds or the flu. Below are some possible symptoms that may also occur such as chills, headache, and body aches. To help her feel better, make sure she drinks plenty of fluids and gets lots of rest, and you can give her children acetaminophen or ibuprofen to reduce the fever. However, it is vital to monitor her condition, and if the fever persists or other symptoms appear, it is better to consult a pediatrician.
