Child Health Issues

Hi all My daughter is 5 months old and dealing with positional plagiocephaly ( flat head on one side ) Although doctors say that it will be okay with time. But day by day I’m getting more concerned as it’s very prominent now. I’m following all tips and tricks to correct it. What else can I do?

Good morning Dr My baby is 44 days old today.. So tomorrow she has to get her vaccination(45 days ).. But tomorrow is sunday and vaccination in our nearby health centre is available on Wednesday.. Is it ok to get her vaccinated on 48 th day instead of 45

My 9 month baby girl is eating 2 meals and 2 snacks a day. However, she doesn't want to drink milk. Isn't sucking through the bottle so using bowls and cups. And in 24 hours she drinks maximum 13 ounce milk..is it ok?

My 9 month old baby is having fever since yesterday evening. His oral temperature is always above 102F-102.5F. I am giving him paracetamol drops every 6 hours which is dropping the temperature to 100.5-101F but he is getting fever 3-4 hours later after giving drops. He is not having any other symptom other than fever till 30 hours. Baby is taking the feeds but is groaning in fever and not being able to sleep well. I tried tepid sponging but baby is crying when I did. Should I wait for another day or visit the doctor immediately. Kindly guide.

By mistake I gave 8-9 drops of otrivin in each nostril for my 2 year old baby. Doctor said it wont cause any harm Do I need to worry feeling a bit tensed.

My 5.5 month old baby is mouthing and is getting diarrhea often, the diarrhea isn't severe and there are no signs of dehydration. I went to the local child specialist doctor, he prescribed novogermina as well as a antibiotic drop for 5 days. My question is , are the antibiotic drops necessary, there is no blood in stool and pus cells came normal in stool test, then why the antibiotic drops.. Will it cause harm in the long run coz babies get diarrhea often.. I maintain bottle hygiene but due to mouthing baby puts several things in mouth that may be the cause of diarrhea..

My daughter is 1 year 6 month old weighing 9.6 KG. She had sign of fever on 21/10/2025 afternoon. We have paracetamol Fepanil 120 syrup. Later next day when we contacted doctor. He suggested P250 paracetamol syrup and HH Levo-M Kid syrup for runny nose. Till 25/10/2025 afternoon her fever levels were almost down. But doctor suggested "Refzil O" antibiotic Syrup 3 course for 4 days as he found lite infection. After taking the first does of antibiotic her fever levels are high at night. Is this common and need not to be worried or do I need to stop Antibiotic?

It appears that my son has developed multiple small reddish spots on his back, chest, and face. I am currently giving him: Caladryl lotion (for application) Montair LC Kid syrup – 5 ml once at night I have already given these medicines. Please guide me if any additional treatment is needed to help remove the spots. I believe it is an allergy, but I am not sure what type. Earlier, he also had a cough and cold.
