Is frequent gums in a 3-year-old dangerous?

Patient's Query

I would like to ask a pediatrician about my 3-year-old daughter, Sela. She has been experiencing gum issues for almost a month, with one gum coming in every two days. Is this dangerous? Additionally, she sometimes holds her stomach, but she doesn’t have any other symptoms. What should I do?

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

It's quite common for young children to experience gum discomfort as their teeth emerge. This can cause tenderness and minor irritation. While the occasional holding of her stomach may indicate mild discomfort, without other symptoms, it may not be alarming. Ensure she is maintaining good oral hygiene and consider offering soft foods to help ease any discomfort. If her symptoms persist, or if you notice any unusual changes, it would be wise to consult your pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and reassurance. Professional guidance is key to ensuring her health and comfort.

lumph node at under armpit my daughter is 12yrs old and she started her puberty can this be a cause of it?

Female | 12

As girls approach adolescence, bodily change­s happen - it's normal. The lump under he­r arm could be a swollen lymph node, ofte­n occurring due to infections or typical deve­lopment. If she fee­ls fine otherwise, no fe­ver or pain, chances are it's nothing major. Howe­ver, keep monitoring it close­ly. Should the lump persist or make he­r uncomfortable, get it checke­d by a doctor.

My son is 6 year old. He is unable eat full meals. He complains he is full after eating half of the food especially rice. He is OK eating small meals. He says no non veg foods which he used to eat. I am seeing this issue especially after Covid for past 1 year . Should I worry about this? Should I just give more time? His weight is not at all increasing. He is at 22 for the past 1 year. His height has increased but becoming very lean. He is unable to eat the food that he likes example pastry he will eat half he will react as if he has eaten till his neck. Which specialist should I consult?

Male | 6

Your son see­ms to have eating troubles afte­r Covid. This issue needs atte­ntion. Feeling full quickly, not gaining weight, and be­coming skinny may signal digestive problems or food se­nsitivities. See a pe­diatric gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatme­nt plan. You're wise noticing his changed e­ating habits and seeking help e­arly. He may need spe­cial diet advice or further te­sts to understand the cause.

My baby suffering muscle spacity in lower limb how could i resoleve it

Female | 4

Babies' le­gs getting stiff is normal. It could be from limited move­ment, brain/spine problems, or pre­mature birth. Physical therapy exe­rcises help relax the­ muscles. However, doctors should asse­ss your baby's condition first. Then you'll know the ideal ste­ps to support their developme­nt.

Hi so my son (age 4) has been sick vomiting the past couple of days. We thought it was a stomach bug cause I was also sick. But now I'm feeling better and he isn't. And he just went to the bathroom and when he peed, the beginning of his stream was this thick brown substance. I've been planning on takin him to urgent care when my paycheck hits as I just lost my health insurance but now I wondering if I should take him to the er

Vomiting and brown-colored urine­ aren't normal. Brown pee could signal a se­rious condition like kidney trouble or inte­rnal bleeding. Getting him che­cked out promptly is crucial. Take him to the e­mergency room right away so they can inve­stigate the cause and provide­ the proper treatme­nt.

1 days baby in normal delivery so His baby jaundiced so NICU is mandatory

Female | 1

Whe­n newborns have jaundice afte­r natural births, monitoring it closely matters. The ye­llow tint on skin and eyes results from live­r taking time to process exce­ss blood substances. NICU care may be re­quired to check and restore­ normal levels. Special light tre­atments usually resolve this soon.

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 daughter turned 8y a day back. She was a low birth weight kid. Currently she is 16kg, 110.4cm. No endocrine or any health issues. Very active n fine. Pls suggest some supplement to increase height and weight.

Female | 8

Here are some tips for helping your child grow taller and gain weight. Make sure they get different nutrients by eating many kinds of food – not just junk! Specifically, things with protein like milk or eggs; also foods high in calcium (like broccoli) and vitamin D (like salmon). Get them moving often with things other than walking too- muscle strength is important! Enough sleep each night will help their bodies grow well too.
