Why does baby get cold when AC is on?
The situation with your baby seems to involve regulating body heat. With AC on, your little one feels cold. Without AC, they get sweaty. This happens because babies' sweat glands aren't fully developed yet. So their bodies struggle to control their temperature. To help, dress your baby in layers that are easy to remove. Keep the room around 68-72°F. A small fan can gently circulate air without making it too breezy or cold. These simple adjustments should help your baby stay comfortable and sleep soundly.

How to relieve chest pain and burning in throat?
Your daughter's chest discomfort and throat burning after dinner are concerning. These could indicate acid reflux, when stomach acid rises into the esophagus. Sometimes, antacids aren't enough. Try smaller meals, avoid spicy/acidic foods. Also, elevate her bed's headrest. This may reduce symptoms. If issues persist, consult a cardiologist. They can recommend treatments or evaluate further.

Where to find pediatric dermatologist for Alopecia in Down syndrome?
Your grandson suffers from Alopecia Areata. Hair falls out in circular bald patches. It can impact eyebrows or lashes too. It's harmless but visually concerning. Usually, it occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles. But the good news is, hair often regrows naturally over time. To aid regrowth, dermatologists may prescribe steroid injections or creams. Consult a pediatric dermatologist for guidance and optimal treatment options.

Why is my 6-year-old coughing badly at night?
This could be a common cold or pesky allergies causing the prolonged coughing fit. Hydration and rest are key - make sure he's drinking plenty of water and getting ample sleep. Consider a humidifier for his room; it might just soothe that bothersome cough. However, if the coughing persists or worsens, don't hesitate to consult your pediatrician.

Why does my 3.2-year-old have 102 fever?
Kids often catch colds. A virus enters their body. This causes fever and runny noses. Rest, fluids, and acetaminophen help. Keep them comfortable. The cold will pass as their immune system fights the virus. Don't worry too much. With care, they'll recover quickly.

Is Cough in a 25-day-old Baby Normal?
Seeing your baby's cough is distressing. Colds or mild infections often cause infant coughing. Babies may also have a runny/stuffy nose. Keep them comfortable, elevating their head for sleeping. Use a bulb syringe to clear nasal congestion. Humidifiers add moisture, easing symptoms. However, if coughing persists or worsens, consult a pediatrician promptly.

Where to Find Top Doctors for My Daughter's Severe Pain?
These symptoms can be pretty rough for a kid her age. There are a few possible reasons: stress, not enough sleep, or something in her diet. My advice is to take her to see a pediatric neurologist for the headaches, plus a counselor. Getting help from both might be useful.

How can I help my toddler poop naturally?
Don't stress if your 20-month-old hasn't pooped for 6 days but seems okay. Constipation is normal for kids. You're right to offer more liquids. Water, prune juice, pears are good options. Whole grains, veggies, beans may also assist. Keep her active. If she still doesn't poop after trying these, it's wise to see a pediatrician.

Why can't my 3-year-old stand after walking?
Kids sometimes grow fast. During this, leg muscles can't stretch enough. This causes Osgood-Schlatter disease near the knees. Pain strikes after lots of walking or running. Recommend that the child take breaks, put ice packs on knees, and take acetaminophen pills. If the agony continues, visit a pediatrician soon. They'll examine and advise further treatment if required.

Why is my baby vomiting repeatedly?
Babies sometimes vomit too much food. Perhaps your little one ate quickly or had a slight illness. Keep giving small sips to prevent dehydration. However, constant vomiting needs medical attention. Reach out to a pediatrician if vomiting persists to get advice and proper care.
