What could be the cause of my son's red eyes?
Dust, pollen and allergens are generally the most common causes. However, make sure no trauma to the eye or injury. He is not straining his eyes by consistency being on a tablet or computer. Routine Pediatric vision checks are also important READ MORE
How long do you keep a child home with strep throat?
It is best to keep them home until their fever has resolved and they have been on their prescribed antibiotic for at least 24 hours. This way they also are less likely to spread the infection. READ MORE
How to use an EpiPen on a child?
When you are administering the Epi Pen to a young child, hold the leg/thigh region firmly in place while administering. Place the orange tip against the middle of the outer thigh (upper leg) at a right angle (perpendicular) to the thigh. Swing and push the auto-injector firmly until it “clicks.” Make sure that you are holding the pen like a fist with your thumb wrapped around the other fingers on NOT at the orange tip. That is the key. If your thumb is placed on the orange tip it will not allow the needle to inject onto the thigh. READ MORE
How do I know what she is allergic to?
You can always ask your Pediatrician to have her allergy tested. It is actually a simple blood test that can be done. READ MORE
Can you recommend a safe ointment for diaper rashes?
In my experience Lanolin and A&D ointment are great barrier ointments to help avoid rashes and calm redness of the skin. I use it myself with every diaper change with my own daughter. They are both safe products. READ MORE
