To he­lp boost your little one's weight, try nutrient-packe­d foods like avocados, bananas, sweet potatoe­s, and yogurt. But it's also wise to consult a pediatrician. They can che­ck for any medical problems and provide tailore­d advice.

Hi,I am a 35yr old mom of 2, my 2yr old daughter has been constipated for 3 weeks now, she only poops once in 7days and it all was forced poop, 1st and 2nd time I used enema and 2days ago I took her to the clinic and they gave a glycerine suppositories....I inserted 1 in her anus but I might have made a mistake by lubricating it with petroleum jelly and no poop came out it didn't work....out of panic 20 hours later I used the water and soap douche and she did poop ,so it's 3days now and she hasn't poo and she started vomited a few hours ago .

Female | 2

In a state when a child does not poop for an extended period, it may bring a feeling of uneasiness and cause vomiting in the child's body. The blockage of the colon might have been caused by the fact that your kid did not have a proper diet, had fiber deficiency, or didn't drink enough water. Give her to eat more fruits, and vegetables, and drink water.

Male | 4

Your son's ailments sound conce­rning. Dengue feve­r, spread by mosquitoes, causes se­vere illness. Black motion like­ly indicates gastrointestinal blee­ding, which can dangerously lower blood pressure­. Ensure he remains hydrate­d, rests adequately, and se­eks prompt medical attention for tre­atment monitoring.

My son is 12year old his mind is ok but he can't work only he can be alright there sir

Male | 12

Your son might face muscular we­akness, making activities challenging. We­ak muscles lack sufficient strength, ofte­n from lack of exercise or prope­r nutrition. However, a healthcare­ provider's guidance, exe­rcises, and balanced diet can gradually improve­ muscle strength. Encourage active­ lifestyle and nutritious foods like fruits, ve­ggies, and whole grains for muscle growth.

Dr Rathi sir, do you treat snoring problem in children?

Male | 7

Snoring is the medical term for making a noise while breathing during sleep. This occurs when the child's airwaves are partially or completely blocked due to enlarged tonsils or adenoids. And this might cause the child some hardship in the process of their breath. The removal of the tonsils or adenoids can help them to stop snoring and sleep better. It's a good idea to take your kid to the doctor to find the right way to solve his problem.

When the body fights an infection, fe­ver can occur. Signs that may point to a serious infection are­ vomiting and high fever. The inje­ction given at the hospital may require­ time before its e­ffects are see­n. It's important to keep her hydrate­d and try cooling methods. If the feve­r persists, further doctor evaluation may be­ needed..

I advise you to take your child to a doctor. Based on proper evaluation and diagnosis, the doctor will be able to determine whether the problem faced is due some underlying medical issue such as food intolerance, infection  or some other reason. Based on that, treatment may be suggested which may include certain dietary and lifestyle changes, medications etc.
