🩺 Is Your Child Sick?

As we head into sick season and children are back in school, we know how stressful it can be when your child isn’t feeling well. At West Alabama Pediatrics, we’re here to support you with trusted tools and guidance.

📲 Visit our “Is Your Child Sick?” page on our website to use our Pediatric Symptom Checker — a helpful resource designed to give parents quick, reliable information about common symptoms and illnesses.

Whether it’s a cough, fever, sore throat, or tummy ache, the symptom checker can help you:

✅ Understand what might be going on
✅ Learn home care tips
✅ Know when it’s time to schedule an office visit

Your child’s health is our priority, and we want to empower you with the tools to make informed decisions.
