My son is 7years old. He has a very bad cold , runny nose and little cough. What medicine can heal him quickly without making him drowsy.
Male | 7
Your son has the usual cold. The runny nose and cough are caused by a virus. You could provide him with a child's medication that has acetaminophen, which is good for coughing and fever, as for his age. Ensure that he doesn't miss out on fluids and rest. It is advisable not to use over-the-counter cold medicines for children.

hi there, i've only now come to realise ive had threadworms for almost all my life - i am 15 and i've probably had them since i was 3 or 4. i want to know what medicine i should be getting to take care of this and can i buy this myself? also will treating this affect my metabolism since i read that these threadworms use glucose to survive so does that mean that's the only thing keeping me skinny?
Female | 15
It's important to treat threadworms with proper medication. You can use over-the-counter medicines like mebendazole or albendazole, which are effective. However, it's best to visit a pediatrician or a general physician for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Treating threadworms won't significantly affect your metabolism.

My one month daughter struggles with constipation and reflux and but constantly groans and moans all the time. Even when she's sleeping she constantly brings her feet up and moves around. She also cries a lot like she's in a lot of discomfort. Her moaning is persistent and if she goes quiet she squeaks really loud like she's struggling to breath.
Female | 1 month
When a baby moans and groans, it could indicate gastroesophageal reflux. This condition involves stomach contents traveling up the esophagus. You may notice crying, struggling to breathe, and general discomfort. Consult your pediatrician regarding potential treatments.

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.

My baby suffering from fever cough and cold from past 1day and she hve 100 temperature fever.
Female | 1
Babies get sick sometimes, it's normal. Your little one's fever, cough and cold likely stem from a virus. That 100-degree fever means her body battles infection. Ensure she rests up, hydrates well. If her doctor says okay, give acetaminophen for fever relief. However, if symptoms drag on or intensify, it's wise to have her pediatrician examine her.

bacha 3 ghante se lgatar ro rha hai
Female | 1 month
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.

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.

Low blood sugar in my 22 day new born child what treatment for hypoglycemia
Male | 22 day
What causes concern is a newborn with hypoglycemia, which means low blood sugar levels. Jitters, sweating, feeding difficulties - these symptoms indicate this condition. Not getting enough milk often contributes to this issue. To tackle it, ensure the baby receives sufficient milk to maintain proper sugar levels. Closely collaborate with pediatrician for monitoring and treatment approaches.

Giving Colimax after Metrogyl is usually okay. Metrogyl can sometimes upset the stomach, but Colimax helps soothe gas and discomfort. But check with your doctor about the right dose for your kid. And make sure he chugs lots of water.

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.

My 10 month old baby got fever after every month from last 3 to 4 months ,, temperature varies from 100 to 102 c I have a blood test report I want to discuss about the report
Male | 0
In children, any fever above 100 degrees Fahrenheit should be investigated. It might mean there’s an infection present. It’s important to go through the blood test report for any indications of an infection. The most likely causes are respiratory or urinary tract infections. After you get the results, make sure you book another appointment with a pediatrician so that they can recommend the right treatment.

These symptoms can be caused by a viral or bacterial infection. To help your child feel better at home, you can give them plenty of fluids, use a cool-mist humidifier, and consider using saline nasal drops to clear their nose.

My kid had constant throat clearing and dry cough he feels some mucus stuck in throat but couldn't cough out..... It's been the third time in this year now.... What medicine should I give..... No runny nose and fever now....
Male | 10
It seems like your child has postnasal drip. This happens when mucus from the nose drips down into the throat, causing throat clearing sounds and a dry cough. It can happen even without a runny nose or fever. You can help by giving your child warm drinks and using a humidifier to ease the congestion. Make sure they drink plenty of water to help thin the mucus as well.

Your sister might experience anxiety. Anxiety causes shortness of breath, trembling, and disrupted sleep. It also affects appetite, leaving one feeling weak. When the body is stressed, it impacts our well-being and eating habits. A crucial step is helping her relax. Simple activities like deep breathing, calming music, or enjoyable hobbies can soothe her mind. Ensure the eats well, even if it's small, frequent meals. Encourage healthy snacks like fruits, veggies, and nuts. If her condition doesn't improve, it's advisable to consult the doctor again.

My baby was born on 15 May 2024 but his oxygen level was very low and he did not even cry. Now he is on ventilator support. It has been 5 days. Can you tell us whether the health of the baby will improve and what will happen next? What problems will the baby face? And how many days will it take for the baby to become mature?
Male | New born baby
Low levels of oxygen at birth can cause a variety of problems. Ventilation support will be necessary to help the infant breathe. It’s a difficult time but with good care the baby’s condition should improve. There might be complications such as lung issues or delays in development. The baby will need more time to grow and mature than usual – usually about 40 weeks from when they were due for delivery.

We are giving medicine from last four 4 years from qualified doctors of pakistan dr noreen akhtar but the child swelled when she leaves the medicine for a month.
Female | 10
Swelling after stopping medicine could show edema, a condition where fluid builds up. This happens because the body adjusts to medicine, then responds when it's removed suddenly. Many reasons like heart or kidney problems can cause edema. Doctors slowly reduce doses to avoid reactions like swelling. It's crucial to talk with your doctor about this concern.
