6 common diseases that mothers often misdiagnose


1. What's going on when the baby has a high fever for several days?

1) First determine whether the infant or young child has obvious respiratory and digestive symptoms during high fever.

2) If it is a cold or fever, be sure to remember to replenish your child's body with sufficient water so that the antipyretic medicine can work.

2. Why are babies particularly prone to diarrhea in spring?

1) Since the nervous system has poor regulatory function on the gastrointestinal tract, any slight change in diet can cause diarrhea.

2) Most of the children are under 2 years old, especially those aged 6 to 11 months, and the incidence rate is second only to acute respiratory infection.

3. What should I do if my baby does not have a bowel movement for a few days?

1) If the bowel movement intervals are long and difficult and there is abdominal distension, crying, etc., you should consult a doctor to rule out problems with the anus or colon development.

2) If the milk is well digested and absorbed, there is little food residue, the bowel movement interval is long and the stool is not dry, it is possible that the patient has constipation.

4. What are the red bumps on the baby's body?

1) It may be a hemangioma: It usually occurs within one year of age, and the symptoms are that the lump gradually grows larger and bulges, and then turns purple and gradually becomes normal.

2) The possibility of eczema cannot be ruled out. Triggering factors such as milk, seafood, pollen, etc. may trigger it.

5. Why does the baby cry when sleeping?

1) If a baby, including a newborn, has sleep disturbances, intermittent crying, or frequent hunger, infant colic should be considered.

2) Many babies suffer from colic, which is characterized by excessive flatulence, difficulty in defecation, burping and regurgitation of milk, and restless sleep.

6. Why do babies snore when they sleep?

1) If your baby always snores when sleeping but has no symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection such as coughing or fever, it may be laryngeal cartilage softening.

2) If the baby cries before going to bed, the narrow nasal passages will easily block the airflow during sleep, resulting in snoring after falling asleep.
