  5. My daughter's been running a fever of around 100F every month for the past few months, and it usually sticks around for about 12 days. The doctor has been recommending Combiflame each time, but this time they suggested a CRP test, and the results showed a CRP level of 65. Now she's on antibiotics for 4 days, and they advised another CRP test afterward. How serious is this for her, or is this kind of thing common in kids? We're really worried and could use some clarity.

A CRP level of 65 indicates a moderate to high level of inflammation in the body. The antibiotics prescribed by the doctor are aimed at treating the possible bacterial infection. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed and follow up with the doctor for the repeat CRP test to monitor the response to treatment. Given the situation, it is essential to follow the doctor's advice closely, complete the course of antibiotics, and monitor your daughter's symptoms. If there are any concerning symptoms or if the fever persists, do not hesitate to contact your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old baby. They're having a bowel movement after every single feeding, like 6 times or even more in a day. It's usually within an hour after they eat. We did a stool test, and everything came back normal, but my b...

Hi there, I understand your concern. Frequent stools after each feed can sometimes be a sign of digestive sensitivity or a mild intolerance, but since the stool test is normal, it's good to rule out infections. I recommend closely monitoring the baby's feeding patterns and discussing with your pediatrician about possible adjustments to the feeding routine or exploring other underlying causes for the weight concerns.

My son has had a fever since yesterday afternoon and I gave him paracetamol, which seemed to help for a bit. This morning, we saw a doctor nearby who advised on cidaflox 100 and macfast syrup. But now, his fever is up to 102. What should I do?

Cidaflox-100: This is an antibiotic (Ciprofloxacin) that is often used for bacterial infections. Ensure that you give the full course as prescribed, even if the fever improves. Don't stop the medication early unless instructed by the doctor. Macfast Syrup: This is typically used to treat gastrointestinal symptoms or inflammation if the fever continues to rise despite medication, or if new symptoms develop (e.g., rash, difficulty breathing, persistent vomiting, severe headache, or persistent pain), consult a doctor immediately. If your son experiences any side effects or signs of an allergic reaction to the medication (such as rashes, swelling, or difficulty breathing), stop the medication and seek medical attention right away.Continue paracetamol as per the prescribed dosage for fever control. Ensure hydration and rest. Monitor symptoms regularly, especially if the fever persists or worsens. Consult the doctor if the fever does not respond to treatment, or if new symptoms develop.
