  • What temperature does a child need to go to the hospital?

    There is no specific temperature. If the fever stays for a long period and will not go down with Tylenol or Motrin, or if there is a febrile seizure then they should be evaluated. But fever is the way the body fights infection and fever isn’t necessarily bad, but if it stays for long periods, won’t go down with Tylenol or Motrin, is there for 5 days or more, or is causing a complication such a febrile seizure, then the child should be evaluated.

  • How can I help my child with bronchiolitis?

    Keep them hydrated and help them by suctioning their nose the best you can. You can use saline with nasal suctioning to help loosen up any dried mucous. Humidifiers can help, especially while sleeping. If they are not drinking well and having good wet diapers, they may need IV fluids, or if they are struggling to breathe they may need oxygen, so those are two reasons to take them to the hospital/doctor.

  • Can a child get over strep throat without antibiotics?

    Yes, they can recover from strep throat without antibiotics, however, without antibiotics they can develop the complication of rheumatic fever and it can damage the heart if that happens. Strep throat is an infection I would definitely want to treat with antibiotics. READ MORE

  • How long does the flu last in children?

  • How to help son with bee allergy?

    You should carry an EPI PEN with you, or make sure your son has one with him in case he is stung. There is not a lot to do to prevent the sting, other than stay out of bee infested areas. If he is stung and has a reaction, including hives, facial swelling, or difficulty breathing, he should receive the EPI PEN injection and go to the nearest ER for further care. READ MORE

  • What is the best allergy testing for children?

    Children over 5-6 years of age can often tolerate skin allergy testing, but that requires a referral to an allergist and for them to tolerate the test. Your primary care should be able to run a blood test for food allergies. It is not quite as accurate as skin testing, but can be a good starting point. READ MORE

  • Are antibiotics safe for a 9 year old?

    As long as they are the right dose, and your child isn’t allergic to that antibiotic, they should be safe. There are a couple of classes of antibiotics that are less safe for children, but most providers shouldn’t be prescribing these. Antibiotics can kill the good bacteria in our intestines and cause upset stomach and diarrhea. Eating yogurt and/or taking a probiotic while taking antibiotics can minimize these effects. READ MORE

  • How do you help a child with autism?

    The best thing I have found is to ensure they have all the therapies in place to help him continue to progress as much as possible, with speech, physical, and occupational therapies. Depending on your location, find out from his pediatrician what other resources are in your area for autism. READ MORE

  • Is it safe to take a child to the chiropractor?

    Yes, it is safe to take a child to a chiropractor. They shouldn’t be too aggressive in their “popping” with a child, but gentle popping and techniques are okay. The chiropractor should be familiar and comfortable with treating children. READ MORE
