It seems that your son might have an inflammation which is probably related to the lymph nodes or salivary glands and that can make the body part transfer and the temperature of another part rise. Viral infections, bacterial infections, or dental problems are all common reasons. Due to the fact that the antibiotics you got from the drug store have not worked, it’s important to take him to the pediatrician. Who can diagnose and suggest the needful tests or treatments for him.

Mujhe mumps hua tha 23 din ho gaye par halka halka dard abhi bhi hai kaan k neeche or jeebh bilkul sukhi silukhi rahti he
Female | 40
Mumps can leave discomfort behind. It causes a viral infection, making salivary glands swell. This leads to ear and mouth pain, dryness. Some symptoms may linger after the infection ends. 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.

My child is 7 yr old.he is hyper active can you suggest
Male | 7
Kids often have abundant energy, appearing hyperactive. Hyperactivity manifests as restlessness, distractibility, or excessive talkativeness. Genetics or environment can contribute to this. Ensure your child engages in ample physical activity, consumes nutritious food, and follows a consistent sleep schedule.

I am a parent of 2 and half year old son.. i accidentally put fenlong in my baby's ear thought of ear drops.. pls do reply.. I am very much worried
Male | 2
I get why you're worried as a parent here. Putting things besides ear drops in the ear isn't good. Watch for signs like pain, redness, irritation, or hearing issues. If your child has any of those, take them to the doctor to get checked and treated right.

Female | 4
Your daughter's low sugar levels are concerning. Kids rarely have low blood sugar without diabetes. Symptoms like tiredness, dizziness, shakiness, or unconsciousness occur. Not eating enough or having another condition causes it. Doctors running tests is wise. Meanwhile, regular meals and snacks stabilize sugar levels.

A cough lasting 4 days calls for attention. Pneumonia is possible, especially with breathing issues, chest pains, or high fever. This lung infection stems from bacteria, viruses, or fungi.

Hello My 11 year old son started showing covid symptoms on Tuesday August 1st. I tested him Friday August 4th and it was positive. I tested him again this morning and it's still positive. I was wondering if he still needs to quarantine. School is Monday and I dont know if he should go or not.
Male | 11
It's worrying your son caught COVID-19. He needs to stay quarantined, even with a positive test. COVID-19 spreads easily, and symptoms are gone or not. Common signs are coughing, fever, and tiredness. Protecting others means avoiding the spread. So stay home until not contagious.

My son don't at all feel hungry and don't eat anything
Male | 7
Kids often refuse food, making parents worry. Your son's lack of appetite could stem from several factors: stress, illness, digestive issues. Ensure he drinks enough water and rests well. If poor appetite persists, consult your doctor. That said, temporary disinterest in eating is normal for children.

Your sister seems to be under the weather. The flu virus causes cough, bulgum, and occasionally ear pain. An ear infection may be present, causing discomfort in her right ear. Taking her to an ENT specialist examination is advisable. They will inspect her ear and prescribe appropriate medication to alleviate her symptoms promptly.

Boy 4year old fever 100.2° F shivering cold feets , feeling sleepy, tired due to early morning wake up and all day travel playing ( history of febrile seizure )
Male | 30
A fever of 100.2°F, shivering, cold feet, sleepiness, and fatigue can be the indicators of an infection that has occurred in his body. You should not take lightly the record of a febrile seizure which necessitates you to keep watch on his temperature. You should ensure that he is sleeping enough, getting enough water, and feeling comfortable in his clothes. If the fever continues or other unusual symptoms appear, consult a pediatrician.

Dear sir baby ko cough and cold hai sath me fever aa rha hai 3-4- days se
Male | 6
Greetings, it says your baby has a cough, cold, and fever. This might happen if they catch a virus. They may have the aforementioned things, or it could likely be a matter of your noticing them sneezing, runny nose, and one who feels hotter than usual. It's regularly done the way that your baby is lying hydrated and that is the flu-correct word. You might apply humidified air and offer them warm fluids. In the case when the symptoms are getting worse, it is better to consult a pediatrician.

Hi , I just found out that my daughter has swelling on her right side of head, is it normal? She's been born on 7 dec 9 days ago, she came to the world by normal delivery. Her swelling is soft and not painful when touching, its size is almost 1 inch approx , her feeding is good, and she doesn't have any coughing or fever . She has jaundice with yellow eyes. I am so worried let me know please.
Female | 9 days
The swelling, in newborns, can sometimes be normal, particularly when it is not very thick and does not cause any discomfort. This could be because the baby is not lying in the best position or that they have a small fluid collection. On the other hand, jaundice is very common in babies, which means that babies should be observed all the time. I suggest you discuss the matter with your child's pediatrician and get a full examination to exclude any possible health concerns and get specialized advice.

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.

Sometimes babies struggle with digesting mom's milk correctly. Black poop and weakness could signal trouble. Maybe an infection or food intolerance. Try giving smaller, more frequent feedings. If other symptoms show up, seek medical advice. Definitely tell your pediatrician if this issue persists. They can guide next steps.
