Stammering (Stuttering) 🗣️

Four-year-old Ethan 👦🏻 began repeating words like “m-m-mummy” and “w-w-water.” His parents worried, but we explained it was stammering, common when speech is developing quickly. With patience, calm conversation, and no pressure, his speech became smoother over time 📈

Support and understanding help words flow naturally 🌱

At Dr. Shan’s Clinic, we evaluate speech fluency, guide parents on positive communication habits, and refer for speech therapy if stammering persists.

Breath-Holding Spells 🌬️

Two-year-old Zayn would cry hard and suddenly turn pale 😨, sometimes even lose consciousness for a few seconds. His parents were terrified, thinking he had fainted.

At Dr. Shan’s Clinic, we assess breath-holding spells carefully, reassure parents, rule out serious causes, and guide gentle ways to manage emotional triggers 🧠

Nosebleed (Epistaxis) 👃🏻

Eight-year-old Rayyan often had sudden nosebleeds 🩸, especially after playing outdoors. His parents were alarmed, but it was epistaxis — usually caused by dry air or nose picking.

Coccygeal Pit 👶🏻

During baby Aarav’s diaper change, his mum noticed a tiny dimple just above his buttocks. She worried it might be something serious 😟

On examination, it was a coccygeal pit, a small indentation near the tailbone. Most are harmless, but some need checking if deep or associated with discharge.

✅ Early attention helps rule out underlying issues.

At Dr. Shan’s Clinic, we examine coccygeal pits carefully, reassure parents when it’s normal, and arrange imaging if there’s any concern of deeper connection 🥰

Bow Legs (Genu Varum)🦵🏻

When little Iqmal began walking, his parents noticed his legs curved outward. They worried it might be permanent, but it was simply bow legs, common in toddlers learning to walk.

Most children outgrow it by age 2 or 3 as their muscles strengthen and bones align 🦴

Sometimes legs just need time — and a little walking practice 💪🏻

At Dr. Shan’s Clinic, we monitor your child’s leg growth, reassure parents on what’s normal, and guide further evaluation only when necessary ❤️
