  5. My 2-year-old has been having a fever for the past 4 days. We went to the doctor, and he prescribed noble plus and zifi 50, but for the last couple of nights, I've noticed his head gets really hot while the rest of his body stays cold. What could this mean?

Your child may be experiencing fever spikes, where the temperature rises significantly in certain parts of the body. This can sometimes happen during the course of an infection. The medications prescribed by the doctor are noble plus (Paracetamol) for fever and zifi 50 (Cefixime) as an antibiotic. Make sure to give the medications as per the prescribed dosage and frequency. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

My child has a really high fever, and their temperature is at 102F. The doctor suggested giving them Meftal, but even after taking one dose, the fever hasn't gone down. What should I do next, should I keep giving the medication or try something else?...

The medication Meftal is commonly used to reduce fever and relieve pain. In this case, since the fever is still high at 102F after taking Meftal, you can consider giving your child Acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) at a dose appropriate for their age and weight. It is important to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging or as advised by your doctor. Additionally, make sure your child stays hydrated and dress them lightly to help reduce the fever. If the fever persists or if your child's condition worsens, please consult your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm a bit concerned about my daughter who's 3.5 months old. She recently got the pentavac vaccination and I've noticed some swelling and a lump forming at the injection site. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it a common reaction?

After pentavac vaccination, it is common for infants to experience swelling and lump formation at the injection site. This is a normal reaction to the vaccine. You can give her a dose of acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) as per the recommended dosage for her age to help with any discomfort. If the swelling or lump persists or worsens, please consult with your pediatrician.
