What to Do for 4-Year-Old Son with Cold Fever?

My 4 year old son has cold fever what I have to do

Answered on 28th Dec '24

When your child comes down with more, fever. He might get sick. Health issues like runny nose, cough, and irritability may be among the main symptoms. They will mostly be caused by a viral infection. One way to help him cope as meltdown unfolds is to make sure he adequately takes fluids and gets enough rest. You can also use a humidifier in his room to make the air moist so that he can breathe easily. The fever could be treated with appropriate fever drugs such as acetaminophen, depending on the age, but the pediatrician should be consulted on the right dosage. In case the symptoms are still there or they get worse, please go to the hospital to check and let the doctor know what is happening.

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.

Nangrow or Aptagrow which is better for 3+ years kids?

Female | 3+

Picking betwe­en Nangrow and Aptagrow for kids over 3 is good. Both give nutrie­nts to grow. If a kid grows well, either works fine­. But, a picky eater or unbalanced die­t needs doctor help. The­y suggest best choice for the­ kid's needs. Most important is a healthy die­t.

Male | 4

A speech delay in autism means a child may have problems talking or expressing their thoughts. This can be a source of frustration for them. Continue with speech therapy as it can develop communication skills. On the other hand, visual aids and repeating routines can help her become clear about him.

Hlo doctor my self hameeda my baby is 21days old can i put aptamil formula milk for my baby because i have less production of milk in my breast

Male | 21day old

When the supply of breast milk is limited, you can slowly switch your baby to formula milk that has nutrients like Aptamil for your baby. Excess stress and in some cases, improper breastfeeding are the reasons why some moms have low milk production. Be calm about it. You will be able to feed your baby the needed nutrients via formula milk. Be sure to go through the instructions on the formula package.

I gave cremazen plus to 3years baby as 5ml unexpected as the gelusil mps was same.any problem for this

Male | 3

Giving Cremaze­n Plus, meant for adults, to a three-ye­ar-old child instead of Gelusil MPS could lead to issue­s. Side effects like­ feeling slee­py, puzzled, and an upset tummy are possible­. The mix-up arose because­ these medicine­s treat varying stomach problems. To correct this, e­nsure the proper me­dication is given next time.
