I'm really worried about my 3-year-old who's been having a fever around 101 that keeps coming back every 8 hours. It's been going on for 5 days now, but there aren't any other symptoms like a cough, sneezing, or a rash. I tried giving Ibuprofen, and it seems to help, but I'm just not sure if I should be doing something else. Could you give me some advice?

A heart rate of 140 at rest and 190-202 during stress is concerning.

This could indicate:

Tachycardia (abnormally fast heart rate)

Anxiety or stress-related issues

Underlying heart conditions (e.g., arrhythmias)

Consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation.

Treatment may involve medications (e.g., beta blockers) or lifestyle changes.

Regular monitoring and follow-up are crucial to prevent potential complications.

I'm really worried because my niece accidentally swallowed a coin yesterday. We had an x-ray done, and it showed that the coin is now in her stomach. The doctor advised us to just wait, but today she went to the bathroom and passed stool, and the coin still hasn't come out. She's acting normally and doing all her usual activities, which is a relief, but I'm still concerned. Should I be doing anything else, or when should I be worried?
