Questions & Answers on "Pediatrics And Pediatric Surgery" (67)
My daughter is 9 months old and she fell face first from a child’s lap onto the grass. I am wondering if I should be concerned
Female | 9 month
When a baby falls from so low a point, they may only get a bump or a little bruise. Observe your daughter for one or two days if she behaves strangely or shows signs of being in pain. If she looks all right and acts normal then she is probably fine. However, in case you notice any worrying things like vomiting a lot, sleeping too much, or becoming very irritable please take the child to a pediatrician for a check-up as soon as possible

MY DAUGHTER IS 9 YEAR OLD GIRL. HER WEIGHT IS 17.9 KG AND HEIGHT 121 CM. HER HEIGHT AND WEIGHT NOT GROWING WELL AND ALSO SHE DOES NOT FEELS SO MUCH HUNGRY. SHE TAKES NAP AT 8 P.M EVERYDAY SO THAT SHE COULD NOT CONTINUED HER STUDY AT NIGHT.
Female | 9
Your daughter might be struggling with her height. Missing out on food and going to sleep early could be bad for her health. Kids need to eat well for growth. She could be lacking certain nutrients or having a sleeping pattern that affects how much she eats. You should take her to see a pediatrician who will advise you on proper feeding and healthy practices that help in growing up.

Baby very unsettled not acting as he usually does / a lot of congestion in nose, crying more than usual and not passing as much poo as usual today
Male | 19 days
Your infant is suffering from either a cold or a slight infection. The stuffiness in their nose may obstruct breathing, thus causing more frequent crying spells. Such a condition can also bring about restlessness. Babies tend to have fewer bowel movements when they have a cold. Ensure that they take enough fluids and get additional sleep. You can relieve the congestion by using a nasal saline spray. However, should these signs continue or worsen, it is imperative to consult a pediatrician.

I AM YEAR OLD GIRL. MY WEIGHT IS 17.9 KG AND MY HEIGHT IS 121 CM. MY HEIGHT AND WEIGHT NOT GROWING WELL AS WELL AS I DO NOT HAVE SO MUCH HUNGRY. I FEEL TO SLEEPY AT 8 P.M EVERYDAY SO I CAN NOT CONTINUE MY STUDY AT NIGHT.
Female | 9
My concern is coming from the fact that you get tired quite early, say at 8 p.m., have no appetite at all, and seem to have stopped adding weight and becoming taller. These signs could be caused by things like lack of proper nutrients or a sickness. Therefore, you should share this information with a responsible grown-up – maybe a family member or your teacher – so that they assist you in getting medical attention. A doctor will examine you to find out what is wrong and give you the necessary treatment.

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.
