If a toddler of 4 years accidentally swallows a vitamin E capsule, this may be the cause of the following symptoms: tummy pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Vitamin E is beneficial to us in small doses, but too much of it can have side effects. Don't worry too much, but it's best to call a doctor to be safe. They will give you the best advice on what to do next.

Your kid has a stubborn fever despite paracetamol. Don't worry, fevers aren't always due to colds or flu. But it's wise to see the doctor and rule out other causes.

6 days old baby girl having loose motion 3 times a day can we give sporlac banana flavour powder

Female | 6 days e

Sometimes, babies pass loose stools often. Don't worry, this happens. If your newborn girl has diarrhea thrice daily, an infection or diet change could cause it. Sporlac banana powder may help. It restores good tummy bacteria, and firms up motions. Keep her hydrated - offer breast milk or small water sips frequently. Don't give any other medicine without a doctor's advice. But if diarrhea worsens or continues, see a pediatrician.

Lingering symptoms happen after recovery. Her body clears infection leftovers. Keep hydrating her. Use a humidifier, saline drops for mucus relief. Ensure she's comfy. Monitor breathing issues; seek help if worsening. Otherwise, she'll recover gradually.

Male | 2

Your child feels unwell, probably due to germs. A fever means their body battles an infection. An illness involves a cough, runny nose and fever. Ensure your child hydrates well and sleeps adequately. Medication, like acetaminophen, can reduce a fever. Should symptoms persist or worsen considerably, consult a pediatrician promptly for professional medical advice.

My five years daughter have fever and vomits 4 times.

Female | 5

It’s common for children to experience fever and vomiting, which might be due to a viral infection or something they ate. Monitor her temperature, ensure she stays well-hydrated with clear fluids, and offer bland foods when she’s ready to eat. Rest is also crucial for recovery. If symptoms persist for more than 24 hours, or if she shows signs of dehydration or lethargy, please reach out to a pediatrician. They can provide tailored advice and ensure she receives the care she needs.

Female | 2

Rashes on an infant's body may result from various factors - allergies, infections, or skin irritants. The itching and crying could indicate discomfort. To provide relief, use gentle products without fragrances, keeping the skin clean and dry. However, if these measures prove ineffective, it's advisable to seek medical advice for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

My husband is 24 years old he having fever for five days.cold and throat pain ,diriyea to Now his nose is bleeding why is that he had 102 fever yesterday

Male | 24

It appears that your spouse has antibodies that might be the root cause of a virus like a cold or influenza. Fever, uncomfortable throat, and gastrointestinal distress may all be present simultaneously. Nosebleeds can be caused by nasal congestion or irritation. Besides, give him plenty of fluids and use a humidifier to make him feel better. If the symptoms don’t disappear after a week, they even worsen, or he gets other problems, please make an appointment for him to see a doctor and have a full checkup with subsequent treatment.

Mera ek 7 years ka beti hi ussko fever or seizure sath mein ata hi

Female | 7

Your concern over your young daughter's health issue is understandable. When high body temperature strikes kids, they may experience a seizure. Kids frequently get fevers which resolve independently. Cooling measures and fever-reducing medicine like acetaminophen help immensely. Seek urgent medical assistance if seizures persist.

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.

The symptoms could mean your brother has trouble with muscles or nerves. This might happen due to muscle issues or nerve problems. Still, a doctor is needed to find the real cause and proper treatment. Meanwhile, help him with healthy foods and exercises he can do. Choose things that don't strain him too much, to uplift his well-being. Watch closely for any changes and quickly see an orhopedist if needed.

My toddler is 2 and half years old and have been noticing constant snoring when he falls asleep and have some restless night , this is very worring and just need advise. Thank you so much

Male | 2

Snoring in toddlers is often caused by partially blocked airways, which may result from enlarged tonsils or adenoids. It's important to consult an ear, nose, and throat specialist for evaluation and treatment. Additionally, ensure your child sleeps in a comfortable position with the right pillows. Don't ignore this issue—talk to a pediatrician to help your child sleep better.

9 year old kid having non stop cough and running nose fever is settled after 5 days of Antibiotics, now there is only whooping cough and running nose

Female | 9

A persistent cough and runny nose could indicate whooping cough, especially if your baby recently had a fever and took antibiotics. Whooping cough is a contagious respiratory infection that causes severe coughing fits. Make sure your child rests, drinks plenty of water, and uses a cool-mist humidifier to ease the cough. Monitor their condition and contact their pediatrician if you have further concerns.

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.
