My baby is 11.5 months old, weighs ~8.6 kg. Fever around 38°C, which comes down after paracetamol but returns after its effect wears off. Baby has a runny nose and initially had 3–4 loose stools, but stools are now normal.
Since yesterday, the baby's cry has become hoarse and there is mild “kharr-kharr” noisy breathing even during sleep.
Baby is feeding and urinating normally. Please advise whether this is likely a viral infection, laryngitis/croup, or something else, and what treatment is needed. Is Solvin Cold safe at this age?
My son is over 2 years old, but he still hasn’t stopped drinking formula milk. What should I do?
I try to give him normal milk but he didn't like the taste.
Hi doc,
Can you please advice if little joy gummies are really beneficial for kids? .
No health issues but should we give it to kids?
My kid is 5 years old
Thanks
I recently asked for my baby who has plagioschphaly, please have a look at the pictures, I am trying to reposition him as much as I can while sleeping and also giving him tummy time when he is awake.
My baby is 6 months old. From the past few weeks I have noticed mustard yellow/orange ear wax coming out of her ear, and yesterday I saw a small amount of black wax. She has also been pulling her ears frequently, but she is teething, so I’m unsure if it’s related.
Over the past 7–8 days, she has stopped consistently responding to her name, although she still reacts to some sounds and ignores others. This sudden change worries me.
Her motor milestones are progressing well—she has started sitting independently since past 15-16 days (still slightly wobbly), gets on all fours, goes into a plank position, tries to crawl, and rolls both ways (tummy to back started recently).
Could ear wax cause reduced hearing or inconsistent responses or is it normal for babies this age to seem less responsive while focusing on motor milestones. Should I be concerned about a hearing problem and consult a pediatric ENT?
