What do Trisomy 21 Age & Screening Risks Mean?

What does Trisomy 21 Age Risk 1:223 and Trisomy 21 Screening Risk 1:218 mean?

Answered on 14th Dec '24

Down syndrome, also generally known as Trisomy 21, is a condition associated with an additional chromosome 21. and, results in some developmental differences. The ratios you mentioned are actually the chances that a test-based diagnosis of Down syndrome of this kind will prove to be real. On one hand, people sometimes may have specific features and varying symptoms such as developmental delays along with specific physical features, but a lot of them live meaningful lives if assistance is available and many lead scaffolding lives with themselves and among others. It's a good idea to report your findings to a healthcare provider who can offer you his own personal advisories and resources. The programs of the early period of intervention can so much develop and improve one's life, that along with the doctor's consultation, you can think whether the doctor's suggestions you doctor-visit or some other method better for your child are.

Strange bruises show up on child's face out of the blue

Male | Musa

It's normal for kids to wake up with some facial bruises & not even remember how they got there. Most of the time it's because they bumped into something or got hurt while playing. But also, like, if your child is on certain meds or has certain health problems, bruises are more likely. If they don't go away or you get other signs of something weird going on in the child's body seek medical attention from a physician.

Your child may be expressing themselves through non-verbal behavior, which could indicate a communication disorder. Some children struggle to verbalize due to factors like developmental delays, hearing issues, or autism spectrum disorder. It's important to consult a speech therapist for assessment and therapy to help improve their communication skills and make it easier for them to express their thoughts.

My baby boy is 1.1 year old. He swallowed a small wooden piece. Please kindly suggest me what to do.

Male | 1

If your little boy swallowed a small piece of wood and is not showing any symptoms such as difficulty in breathing, coughing, or choking, it can be assumed that he will pass it through his stool without any problems. Just make sure to check his poop to see that the piece comes out. Nonetheless, if he exhibits any signs of distress or if the piece does not pass within a few days, it is advisable to seek medical advice as early as possible.

My son is a year old and he fell during the night and bit the inside of his lower lip. He was bleeding but I managed to stop it, now it is swollen. I am scared, what can I do? I gave him painamol syrup for kids.

Male | 1

Your son has a common lip bite injury. Swelling is normal and should go down in a few days. To help with this, gently press a cold compress on the outside of his lip. Painamol can be effective for the pain. Keep an eye on him to ensure he can still eat and drink comfortably.
