How urgent is a dr appt... Is decided by parents. Emergency cases in children require hospital admission.

When you call a doctor for appointment,  please be sure the child is not having any danger to life. If u feel child is serious or very weak or u arr worried of danger to life,  please do not wait at home and take the child to hospital immediately for admission and supervised therapy. Taking a risk to wait for an appointment can at times worsen the disease,  more so when the wait is more. When a patient is at home How urgent is a dr appt... Is decided by parents. Emergency cases in children require hospital admission. THIS IS ONLY BECAUSE EVERY PARENT IS NOT A DOCTOR AND PARENTS ASSESSMENT OF SEVERITY OF DISEASE CAN'T BE SAME AS DOCTORS AND ITS NOT WISE TO WAIT AT HOME WHEN IN DOUBT. When a doctor says no immediate danger to life means child can be saved with medical measures if acted in time. It doesnt always mean that child can be managed at home. डॉं कोंडेकर संतोष वेंकटरमण@मुंबई Dr Santosh Kondekar is now also available at Shushrusha hospital Dadar ...

Autism : general understanding

AUTISM u may say is a type of personality or social interaction issue in otherwise normal child. That means you aren't with a case of serious autism which have issues with development and IQ. Certifying it is a technical job once the Dr learns to understand medical terms involved in diagnosis making. Ministry of health of India has released a national program now with inclen diagnostic tool which is widely available on internet. Problem is not with diagnosis... But is with treatment. One needs to assess intellectual productive value of child along with speech and personality issues and these need to be tackled with various therapy programs, the choice of which though is subjective but should b decided on what works best. A combination never harms but many programs are less studied or less effective and may have been advertised too much. Definitions keep on changing every decade and that's just for technical issues . before 1984 these kids were part of a group called psychopa...

बच्चोको कब और कौनसी टिके या लस दी जाती है और क्यों?

बच्चोको कब और कौनसी टिके या लस दी जाती है और क्यों? आजकल टिकाकरन कार्यक्रम और टिके नई तरह से मार्केट मे छा जाते है।इस वजह से काफी डाक्टर और पालकोंके बीच संभ्रम हो जाता है। इस वेबसाइट पे उसे निरपेक्षतासे समझाया जा रहा है। सरल समझ के लिए टिका {इन्जक्शन} और डोस {पिने का}को एकसमान वैक्सीन नाम से उद्ध्रत किया जाएगा। आयुर्वेदिक स्वर्णप्राश टिका गौण माना जाएगा। वैक्सीन इन्फेक्शन के प्रतिबंध मे मदद करते है; कई वैक्सीन जन्मभर तक इनसे संरक्षण देते है। मिजल्स {गोवर\खसरा};मम्प्स{गालगंड};रूबेला{छोटी माता};चिकनपोक्स {फोडीवाली रैश};पानीसे फैलनेवाली पीलीया {काविल/हैपेटायटिस} तथा डिप्थेरिया {घटसर्प};काली खासी/पर्ट्यूसीस/डान्ग्या खासी और टेटनस {धनूर्वात} इन बिमारियोसे बचानेवाले टिके १०-२० सालो तक या जादा संरक्षन देते है। कुछ टीके कम समयतक या कम मात्रा मे संरक्षन देते है। टायफाईड का ३ साल; फ्ल्यू का १ साल तथा निमोनिआ टीका १_२ सालही संरक्षन देता है। टीके लेना या लेना यह प्रश्न बारिश मे छाता इस्तेमाल करना या ना करने के जैसा है। उसी तरह सारे टिके लगवाए या कम यह प्रश्न बारिश मे छाता छोटा या बडा पूछने ...

dont expect a prescription online or phone... because

May be you can repair your a table by knowing how to use a hammer and screw, you may not do so for a smart phone; you know - its fragile.. The case with a child or human body is more delicate than this; its not only fragile but it is also dynamic. As a scratch can make the phone unusable, a wrongly spelt name or dose or duration of a medicine can be life threatening; More so; with a telephonic consultation where you are assuming that your assessment of the problem and doctor's assessment of the problem is exactly same. How can a parent/relative/guardian/politician know a child suffering from some disease; which a doctor probably took years of education and experience to understand and yet appears not so confident. - Dr SK Aug 2016 So, unless you are a qualified doctor; dont use online medical help for management... but use only for understanding.  www.kondekar.com Follow @9869405747 DR SK is a qualified pediatrician with MD and DNB qualification, from India who has...

parents should not consider an infant or a child at par like an adult

Its important that parents do not consider an infant or a child at par like an adult that they may be given OTC Medicines as and when they feel like. Children are not like machines but are like pets.. . Who cannot talk and the problem perceived by an adult non medico is likely to be a mere exaggeration of what the adult may be imagining with his re-callable experience of sufferings.. most remembered in last few days. Also what a child may tell as a symptom may not be exactly same what the child may be suffering from as a toddlers language development may not be appropriate to describe the exact suffering of child. A doctor often needs to weight the told symptoms, felt feelings and clinical signs before declaring a child to be manageable from home. Deciding about medicines also depends on level of acumen of doctor, his expertise and recent trends of the symptom in recent days apart from his knowledge beliefs and his readings of recent advances and guidelines. Degree al...

Ear ache in children

Short duration earaches are very common in children and often is a reason for rushing to hospital with the baby around 3am. Though common cause of ear ache all over world is wax or a foreign body insect or cotton or stick in ear... In infants the ear is most commonly aching due to common cold. The nose block associated with common cold or rhinitis or adenoiditis or flu causes pressure and congestion of Eustachran tube opening in throat and causes pain in ear due to pressure buildup in middle ear. Ear ache in infants is commonest reason of excess cry (after the infantile colic) in age 2 months to 2 years. Ear infections are often bacterial and may need good course of specific antibiotics. Dont try to treat an ear issue without visiting a doctor as there are some serious infections like otitis media that need good course of antibiotics. Also some life threatening sequalae like bleeding, sepsis or tetanus may floow some cases and cannot be easily seen as other symptoms. Never put a...

internet based advice.. what should one expect from a doctor online? does it bypass consultation?

often people seek online medical advice to save time money and confusion... Should patients read internet? We often say; half knowledge is dangerous. Especially we hear in medical field.. media and doctors cribbing about patient reading lots of details on internet. They google the diseases and spoil their mind with lots of queries and bombard a doctor with lots of queries about chance possibilities. All this is discouraged by many. I do not. A doctor should never be insecure about what patient needs or knows as long as all is done in good faith. Give a second thought, how can knowledge be dangerous. Knowledge is always a piece of information that is searched for out of curiosity to know understand and to clear confusions when u feel u have no other choice left. Its likely that there may be wrong books written so also the wrong information provided in media advertisements websites and internet. So its likely that information may be wrong or wrongly interpreted that exactly ...

eat apple for taste; not for iron@

Apple gives calories as equal as a banana... sixty calories for 120gm serving. See the cost effectiveness. A water melon slice is equal to same. means cheaper fruits like banana and watermelon are richer in calories compared to apple. So why apple madness? Age old saying is.. an apple a day keeps doctor away. its supposed to keep u healthy by keeping u low in calories. if u have an apple prior to a meal.. u may eat 180 calorie less. In short.. its a weight reducer.. so why punish kids with it when they need to gain weight. Now coming to iron... are u maddened by apple content of iron cos it turna black when kept open to air... then again u r fooling urselves. iron require...
