General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Cuts may lead to infections, so check if the injured child is up-to-date with their tetanus shot. Tetanus is a germ that enters through cuts, causing stiff, spasming muscles. The vaccine helps fight this germ off. Check if the cut child is protected against tetanus. If not, get them vaccinated to prevent infections or issues.

Hi. My son has dry cough. In morning I gave him dry syrup by mistake which was made 1 month ago. And its expiry date is 2024.is there any side effects of this?
Male | 6
If your child swallowed dry syrup prepared last month, yet unexpired, it's typically harmless. Expired medications might gradually diminish efficacy but rarely induce illness. Unless your son exhibits nausea, vomiting, rash, or other abnormal symptoms, he'll likely remain unaffected. Monitor him and consult a pediatrician promptly if any concerning signs arise.

Mera baby eye contact nhi karta h
Male | 2
Babies often don't look into people's eyes early on. Your baby never seems to make eye contact which could mean a "delayed eye contact" issue. There might be different reasons behind this behavior. It could take more time for eye contact skills to develop fully. However, it might also potentially relate to conditions such as autism spectrum disorders. Feeling unsure is understandable - consider discussing your observations candidly with your child's pediatrician.

Male | 2
When your child has a fever, it can cause worry. But staying calm is key. Most fevers in kids happen due to infections. If Tylenol fails to reduce the fever, give a lukewarm bath and drink lots of fluids to stay hydrated. Dress them in light, comfortable clothes. However, if the fever persists, you should contact a pediatrician.

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 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.
