🤒🤧🤮🤢
In last 1 year, infections in children have gone almost five to six times higher (as compared to pre covid levels) because of which parents are in a constant state of anxiety and misery.
Doc my kid is continuously having cough and cold, they are not able to sleep or eat, why is it happening to my child only etc.
👉Common culprits in their minds are ( in descending order of importance) - immunity disorder, allergies, food (like milk, curd, cold water, juices, icecreams, lemon and all kinds of assumptions about food), taking bath in winters and lastly infections (which ideally should be the 1st one )
👩‍⚕️🩺🚑 To avoid visiting the doctor for same problem again, most parents end up self medicating their kids with a cocktail of antibiotics, cough and cold syrups, so called immunity boosters, supplements etc. and because of which most kids are now landing up with disturbed sleep, ear pain or ear discharge, snoring and mouth breathing, and persistent dark circles under the eye etc. leaving us doctors without anything to help them with.

⭐️⭐️Plz remember not all coughs are same and not all coughs and colds require Montair LC (most common self abused and prescribed drug).
👉Depending on the cause the treatment differs.

Consult your pediatrician if that irritating cough just doesnt go away..

Back after a long hiatus....!!

What triggered me to write this post was, a parent getting angry that despite getting the flu shot, the kid was still getting recurrent colds ( they had gotten it only because it was told to them that the child won't be getting ill after the flu shots).

Yes, flu vaccines are an essential component of your child's immunization but to presume that the flu vaccine is the cure for all illnesses and the assumption that the child won't be falling ill after getting the flu vaccine is wrong.

Also, it is important to note that any vaccine takes a certain time period for it to start getting effective, mostly a couple of weeks at least. The vaccine is not going to confer immediate protection ( as we see many parents coming up for vaccination when they come in contact with some flu patient). That's why it's advisable to get the vaccine before the start of the season. But in case you have missed it, get it done whenever you can.
With this post, I have tried to put together the common queries and doubts parents have about flu vaccination.

Get your child vaccinated against the flu and talk to your pediatrician if you have any concerns about any vaccination.

🧐Allergy is often a misused and misunderstood term in general.
Most people often attribute their symptoms to some form of allergy.
👉In my allergy practice, I meet so many people who get the supposed food allergy panel testing, which often test so many food items. They come over carrying pages and pages of reports. It is most often confusing and people end up avoiding so many foods in their diet without experiencing any actual benefit and this is sad to see especially if a child is involved. It sometimes becomes very difficult to explain to a parent or a patient that the symptoms are not because of the supposed positive report to a particular food.

🎯Please remember food allergy tests are not screening tests. They do not diagnose anything in isolation. The clinical history was, is and will always be the best and most important part of diagnosing allergies.

🎯There are absolutely no reasons to order a large battery of food allergy tests.
The food insensitivity test (IgG testing) which is being done rampantly has absolutely no indication and implication whatsoever in diagnosing food allergies.

If you have concerns regarding food allergies, talk to a certified allergist first, where on basis of proper evaluation and history food allergy testing if needed can be planned.
🔔Not every symptom is because of allergies and that too especially food allergy.

Today is World Asthma Day. This day is organized by the Global Initiative for Asthma ( GINA) with an aim to raise awareness of Asthma worldwide.

Asthma is one of the major health problems and its incidence is rising in children.
India contributes to 11.1 percent of the global asthma burden and accounts for over 42 percent of related deaths making it asthma capital of the world.
This year's World Asthma Day theme is "Closing Gaps in asthma care".
There are a number of gaps in asthma care which require intervention in order to reduce preventable suffering as well as the costs incurred by treating uncontrolled asthma. The most commons being
1. Access to diagnosis and medicines
2. Knowledge and awareness both among healthcare providers and parents
3. Busting the common myths associated
Today I address the common and widely held myths and misconceptions regarding asthma that prevent most parents from taking long term treatment and thereby devoiding kids of a healthy life.👧👦
Lets break these myths and embrace the facts regarding asthma and its treatment.😇🗣

Taking care of your kids in this extreme heat is very important and this can be done by keeping just a few simple things in mind..
1. Be water smart: Hydrate, hydrate n hydrate💧💧💦💦
2. Be sun smart: Sunscreens always, umbrellas, hats and sunglasses whenever required and avoid sending them out in peak hours😎😎🤠☂️
3. Be pool smart: Dont leave kids without supervision and always make them take a bath once finished🌊🌊
4. Be food smart: Eat home cooked, fresh produce. Avoid eating outside🍱
5. Be bug smart: Mosquito repellents to be used liberally...🦟🦟

So basically "Be summer smart"!!💁‍♀️💁

A very happy holi to my little munchkins and their parents.😍🥰🤩
👉Tips to keep your kid stay safe this Holi:
✨Apply oil all over the body and in hair before going out.
✨Make them wear full sleeves clothes
💦Preferrably use herbal colors and things like turmeric, flower extracts etc. and not mud, eggs and paints etc.
👩‍👧Teach your child the basic safety things like not to run over wet surfaces, avoiding throwing colors on face and eyes.
🙅‍♀️Do not apply color to a child who does not want to.
🥴While using water filled balloons, avoid hitting on face.
😎In case color goes in eyes, immediately rinse with lots of cold water.
🕵️‍♀️Let them be free while playing but keep a close eye especially for younger kids.
😋Eat home cooked meals and sweets

👉Post Holi celebrations:
⚡️Immediately remove wet clothes and take a warm shower.
⚡️To remove colors use a natural scrubber like mixture of curd, gram flour(besan) and lemon juice/honey/rosewater (optional).
☄️In case of any redness or rash, apply cool compress/aloe vera and consult your paediatrician if it persists

🌸Stay safe; play safe!!🌺
