Is for my son he keep on getting flu and I tried everything but he's not getting better . What should I do now
Male | 2
The flu is unpleasant - fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, body aches. Your son's immune system seems weak, allowing repeated infections. He needs rest, hydration, nutritious meals, and frequent handwashing. Speak to a doctor about getting him a flu vaccine. It could prevent future illnesses.

Female | 2
It looks like your little one may have food refusal, struggling to take anything but breast milk. This could stem from sensory sensitivity, teething pain, or pickiness. You can try offering soft, varied eats in bite-sized portions throughout the day. If the troubles persist, consult with your pediatrician for tips.

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.

Male | 11
You weigh more than is typical for an 11-year-old. This excess weight makes moving around harder. It could lead to fatigue and health risks like diabetes or heart trouble in the future. To get healthier, eat nutritious foods, especially fruits and veggies. Exercise regularly, like sports or other physical activities.

Strange bruises show up on child's face out of the blue
Male | Musa
It's normal for kids to wake up with some facial bruises & not even remember how they got there. Most of the time it's because they bumped into something or got hurt while playing. But also, like, if your child is on certain meds or has certain health problems, bruises are more likely. If they don't go away or you get other signs of something weird going on in the child's body seek medical attention from a physician.

What can I give a girl having high temperature
Female | 5
Fevers are the body's reaction to fighting off germs. Drink lots of water. Take acetaminophen for the fever. If the fever persists for more than 3 days, visit a doctor. That's important because high fevers can be worrisome. A mild fever under 102 Fahrenheit is okay and common for kids during minor illnesses. But anything over 103 Fahrenheit means getting medical attention. Keeping fluids up and medication helps kids feel better during fevers.

Male | 11
Chickenpox is a frequent illness in kids. The symptoms consist of red itchy spots which form into blisters, fever, and not feeling well. It is caused by a virus called varicella-zoster. The good news is that chickenpox usually will go away by itself in a week or two. Be sure to consume enough fluids and rest. Prevent scarring by scratching the blisters. Inform a grown-up at home so they can help take care of you while you recover.

Male | 4
Kids deal with coughing and colds differently. Typical signs include a drippy nose, sneezing fits, and lingering cough. Viruses spread easily, causing these issues. Make sure your kiddo drinks enough liquids, rests well, and uses a humidifier to alleviate coughing. You could offer honey as well. If your child appears very ill or struggles breathing, seek medical attention promptly.

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.

Male | 1
Many parents worry if their child bumps their head. A toddler who's hard to wake after a head injury may indicate a serious issue. Be alert for constant tiredness, throwing up, or pupils that look different sizes. See a pediatrician quickly to be sure all is well. With young kids' head injuries, it's best to get checked rather than risk harm.

Your baby boy likely has a pancreatic duct stricture. In simple terms, this means part of his pancreas tube is narrowed. Symptoms like tummy pain or eating troubles can occur. It may be from a birth issue or past inflammation causing the narrowing. Surgery might be needed if it causes major problems. Your best approach is to discuss it with your pediatrician to decide the proper plan.

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.

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 baby has tongue tie problem
Female | 2
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.
