Why Does My 5-year-old Have Vaginal Swelling?
5 years baby ke yoni ke upar sujan aayi hai
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Your child has swelling around their private parts. This swelling happens sometimes. It can come from being irritated or something causing infection. Maybe your child got hurt there. It's important to keep that area clean and dry. You can use a gentle cream after washing the spot gently. If the swelling doesn't go away soon, get help from a doctor. Or if the swelling bothers your child, see a pediatrician.
Can I feed Similac Neosure to my baby if she is not gaining weight?

Dr. Babita Goel

Answered on 24th June '24
Babies double their weight by six months, so it's good you pay attention. If yours isn't gaining weight properly, reasons could include insufficient intake, medical issues, or natural smallness. Rather than calculating solo, discuss with the pediatrician - they'll identify the actual cause and recommend ideal steps for your little one's progress.

Safe Dosage of Atarax Syrup for Baby Skin Allergy
Can I give atarax 2mg/ml syrup to my 17 months old baby for skin allergy with a dosage of 2.5ml twice a day
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Reddish spots, itchy feelings, and bumpy rashes can show up on baby's skin from allergies. Causes could be bug bites or foods their body doesn't like. Doctors sometimes give Atarax syrup with 2mg medicine per ml to help make those allergy signs go away. For babies around 17 months old, a common dose is 2.5ml twice each day. But you should always follow exactly what the doctor says for treating your little one's skin allergy issue best.

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Your child seems to have an inflamed gut, making them grumpy and restless overnight. The calprotectin number, sixty-seven, signals inflammation there. Since the hypoallergenic formula didn't improve things, maybe it's not food-related. Definitely consult your pediatrician about next steps and solutions.

Baby passing hard stools - causes and advice
Hi doctor my one year baby boy passed hard stools today 5 times what would be the reason. But he is active and playing but he has a running nose and cold... Please advise as I am worried.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Your baby's tummy issues with the cold aren't surprising. Colds produce mucus, and hardening stools are normal. Keep them hydrated: offer liquids, pears, and prunes to ease bowels. Monitor symptoms closely; if concerned, consult experts promptly.

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Your baby's trouble peeing is worrying. Infrequent, small puddles aren't normal. Dehydration or infection could explain it. Few wet diapers raise red flags for babies. Even if reluctant, keep giving milk and water often. Have a pediatrician examine the issue promptly.

Baby Tongue Tie: Causes and Solutions
My baby has tongue tie problem
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Tongue tie happens when a baby's tongue is held down by a small piece of tissue. Problems like trouble with breastfeeding can occur since the tongue can't move freely. This issue develops if the tissue restricting the tongue is too short. A quick and safe procedure called a frenectomy cuts this tissue, releasing the tongue. Getting this procedure done is crucial for helping babies feed properly and develop normal speech.

Can Pink Cotton Candy Turn the Urine Pink?
Mere bete ne pink cotton canddy khai thi or uska peshab gulabi ho gaya hai
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Eating pink cotton candy can give your son pink urine. Harmless, yet odd. It's called "pink urine syndrome". Certain dyes pass through the body unchanged. He should drink lots of water to flush it out. Don't let him eat too much. But if pink urine persists or he feels pain, take him to see a urologist.

Baby's Head Measurement is Smaller
My baby head is measuring two weeks smaller. The Dr said it's normal
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Don't panic if your baby's head measures a bit smaller. It sometimes happens, and often it's no big deal. No symptoms might even appear. One possible reason could be the baby's position. Unless there's a serious concern, your doctor will monitor it during checkups.
Infant Passing Gas Frequently, No Stool for 3 Days
My question is about my 40 days old baby boy he fart so many times a day and not passing stool since 3 days
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Babies let out gas frequently - it's quite normal, as their digestive system matures. However, if your little one hasn't passed stool in three days, constipation might trouble them. Inadequate milk intake or switching formulas could trigger this issue. Try offering more breastmilk or formula, gently rubbing the tummy area. Should the concern persist, seek guidance from a pediatrician for personalized recommendations.

Child Vaccination: Swelling Relief and Proper Administration
My child got vaccinated and got swelling on injected area ..what should i understand by this that vaccination is done properly or not and how should i treat my child to get rid of pain and swelling.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
Swelling, and pain at the injection area - this is normal for kids after vaccination. The body responds by building immunity. Cold packs soothe discomfort; acetaminophen helps too. Persistent swelling warrants checking with the doctor. But generally, these reactions indicate the vaccine is working as intended.

इसके उपाय: बच्चा 3 घंटे से लगातार रो रहा है
bacha 3 ghante se lgatar ro rha hai
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 24th June '24
The child crying for 3 hours straight is concerning. You checked their needs, but crying persists. Hunger, discomfort, or sickness causes prolonged crying. Ensure they're fed, clean, and comfy. Look for fever, vomiting - signs of illness. If crying won't stop, see a doctor quickly. It's important to find the root cause and address any issues.
