🌸✨ TINY TIP THURSDAY ✨🌸
From your friends at Pediatric Choice Jacksboro 💙
Is it allergies… or just a cold? 🤧
This time of year, it can be hard to tell!

Here’s a quick guide to help 👇
🌼 It might be ALLERGIES if your child has:
• Clear, runny nose
• Sneezing fits
• Itchy eyes or throat
• Symptoms that last for weeks
• No fever

🤒 It’s more likely a COLD if they have:
• Thick yellow/green mucus
• Fever
• Body aches
• Sore throat
• Symptoms that improve within 7–10 days

Allergies usually stick around as long as pollen is high, while colds tend to run their course in about a week.

If you’re unsure....that’s what we’re here for! 💙

🩺 We’re OPEN today and have appointment availability with Stacy Riggs or April Rodriguez!

Let’s help your little ones breathe easy and feel their best this spring 🌷

🤢💚 TUMMY TUESDAY 💚🤢
From your friends at Pediatric Choice Jacksboro

If it feels like the stomach bug is making its rounds… you’re not imagining it 😅
Tummy troubles are super common this time of year. Here’s what to watch for:
🌀 Nausea or vomiting
🌀 Diarrhea
🌀 Low-grade fever
🌀 Decreased appetite
🌀 Tired, sluggish kiddos

💧 The BIGGEST thing to focus on? HYDRATION.
Small, frequent sips of water or electrolyte drinks are best. Popsicles can help too!

🚩 Give us a call if your child:
• Can’t keep fluids down
• Hasn’t urinated in 8+ hours
• Seems very lethargic
• Has severe belly pain
• Has signs of dehydration (dry mouth, no tears, sunken eyes)

Most tummy bugs just need rest and fluids but, we’re always here if you’re unsure.

🩺 We’re OPEN today and have appointment availability with Stacy Riggs, Megan Shoemaker, or April Rodriguez
Don’t hesitate to call if your little one isn’t feeling their best.

Let’s get those tiny tummies back on track 💚

✔️ Plenty of water
✔️ Fruits + veggies daily
✔️ Handwashing (yes, even at home!)

Small habits make a big difference. 💪

Flu season is here, and we’re seeing a lot of sick kiddos at Pediatric Choice right now. Let’s talk about the difference between Flu A and Flu B in a super simple way. 🦠

Think of the flu like two different “teams” of germs that try to make people sick. One team is called FLU A, and the other is called FLU B.

FLU A is the more aggressive team. It spreads fast, shows up early in the season, and usually causes bigger outbreaks. Kids with Flu A often feel very sick very quickly, with high fevers, body aches, chills, cough, and lots of fatigue.

FLU B is the calmer team, but it can still make you feel pretty miserable. It usually shows up later in the flu season and spreads a little slower. The symptoms are very similar to Flu A, but sometimes not quite as intense.

Here’s the important part:
No matter if it’s Flu A or Flu B, both can make your child feel awful, and both need the same kind of care, rest, fluids, fever control, and sometimes antiviral medicine if caught early.

Call our office if your child has:
• Fever over 100.4°F
• Body aches or chills
• Bad cough
• Extreme tiredness
• Vomiting or not drinking fluids

📞 Call Pediatric Choice at 423-562-4149 to schedule an appointment with Stacy Riggs or Megan Shoemaker
We’re here to help your little ones feel better as quickly as possible. 💙
