Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

My baby's lips have started turning a blackish color over the last couple of days. She's eating normally, and everything seems fine in that department. However, she's passing liquid stool, and I'm concerned it might be related to the heat here. Could you provide some guidance on what might be happening?

Accepted Answer

It's good to hear that your baby is feeding well. Blackish lips can sometimes be due to dehydration or a lack of oxygen, but its important to monitor if this persists. The liquid stools could indeed be due to the heat; keep her well-hydrated, and if the symptoms continue or worsen, Id recommend a pediatricians consultation for a thorough checkup.

My brother's been dealing with a fever since yesterday, along with a cold and cough. We first gave him Crocin and now he's on paracetamol. Should we be worried about anything in particular or try anything else to help him feel better?
