My son was speaking well. He is 2 years old. But suddenly for the past 2 to 3 weeks he is facing difficulty is speaking. He faces difficulty is starting words. It looks like he is putting lot of pressure to utter the word. It happens randomly and does not happen always. When we ask him to tell the word again, he will try but some time having difficulties and he stop saying and other time he tried and some how he is saying with wrong word like he will say mammy to ammy and bappi to appi, Not sure of the reason for this sudden change. Any advice will be helpful. Thank you.

The reasons may be varied. sometimes some parts of the brain can be affected as a result of shuttle ischemic attack (which is not uncommon in children) or maybe due to some metabolic cause that is affecting speech related to the brain. MRI BRAIN WITH MRI Spectroscopy should be done along with detailed physical &neurological examination of the child.Also, look for any worsening of other developmental domains for example difficulties in standing or in gripping something. You can also consult the Pediatricians for further information.

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.

Male | 8 months
For an 8-month-old baby with a 99.2 fever, you can usually give paracetamol drops. The typical dose is 10-15 mg per kg of the baby's weight, but it is important to consult a pediatrician for the exact dosage. Always check with your child's doctor before giving any medication.

Male | 3
Your son's high fever and cough for 4 days is understandable. The blood test shows inflammation or infection. This could be bacterial, causing the fever and cough. The doctor advised an X-ray to identify the issue. Antibiotics may help treat infection. Ensure your son rests well, drinks enough fluids, and takes medicines as prescribed by a pediatrician.

For a 5-year-old with prickly heat, keep the affected area cool and dry, dress in loose-fitting, breathable clothing, and apply calamine lotion or a mild hydrocortisone cream to soothe irritation. Avoid excessive sweating and heat exposure. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a pediatrician for further evaluation and treatment.

I want to know about pediatric dermatologist,my 3 and half year old grandson having Alopecia Aereta, he is downsyndrom boy
Male | 3
Your grandson suffers from Alopecia Areata. Hair falls out in circular bald patches. It can impact eyebrows or lashes too. It's harmless but visually concerning. Usually, it occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles. But the good news is, hair often regrows naturally over time. To aid regrowth, dermatologists may prescribe steroid injections or creams. Consult a pediatric dermatologist for guidance and optimal treatment options.

Stay hydrated: drink plenty of water. Avoid acidic, spicy foods – they could irritate. Get lots of rest. If pain persists or worsens, see a doctor.

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.

Female | 2
A cough for a 2-year-old with diabetes is concerning. Illnesses can raise blood sugar. Higher levels may worsen the cough. Causes vary – could be a cold or allergies. For now, push fluids and rest. But if it persists or worsens, discuss it with the diabetes care team. They'll advise if child-safe cough medicine is appropriate. Importantly, monitor blood sugar closely during sickness.

Pani ki kami kasy door krn 4 month old baby ha diahrea ho raha
Female | 4 month
Having a baby with diarrhea is concerning. Watery stools can quickly dehydrate infants. You must provide extra breast milk or formula. Stay away from sugary beverages. Diarrhea often stems from infections, food sensitivities, or overfeeding. Persistent diarrhea lasting over 24 hours or bloody stools require medical attention. Don't hesitate to reach out to your pediatrician if symptoms worsen or fail to improve.

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.

Male | 8 month
Labial frenulum is the piece of tissue between the lips and the gums which is a little bit of skin. The symptoms can be pain and swelling. If there is too much pressure on it, this can occur. The dentist or the ENT doctor should check the baby. They can allow the skin to recover by itself or recommend a minor surgical procedure to assist in proper healing.

My wife breastfeeds my son is 1 year and 2 months old can she take a 5 mg clonazepam tablet just one day once is it harmful in the same way???
Female | 20
Clonazepam gets into breast milk, potentially harming babies. Avoiding its use during breastfeeding, mainly without medical guidance, proves crucial. Infants might experience drowsiness, breathing difficulties, and additional side effects due to Clonazepam. Before consuming any medication while nursing, consulting a doctor seems advisable for your wife's well-being.

Male | 7
It seems he may have a serious condition causing the fever and weakness. The glucose given by the doctor was likely to provide energy. Not eating for 7 days is quite concerning. It's important to take him back to the doctor for further evaluation and treatment. Meanwhile, ensure he stays hydrated and gets plenty of rest.
