Boils on legs are very common skin infection caused by bacteria which may need oral antibiotics also. It can be seen in kids with good immunity as well as in immunodeficient kids also. So you need to see your pediatrician and confirm this diagnosis and get treatment.

While this can be as simple condition as learning new word and excited about repeating it, one must also note any autistic behavior like poor social interaction, obsessive interests and repetitive behaviors. Or if any seizure like activity associated, one must consult your pediatrician.

Sleeping for 12 hours including nap time is normal in this age group. However it should not disturb her academic or other activities. If she is tired or drowsy even after her sleep or showing lack of interest in studies , she should get pediatrician opinion and evaluation to look for anemia , thyroid function or any other causes.

Hi..Basically green colour stool is not worrisome if baby has no other complaints and thriving well. It is due to bile in stools. It is also seen in few formula fed infants also. However if baby is having any other symptoms like not gaining weight, persistent loose stools, inconsolable cry etc, consult with your Pediatrician.

Try to give 2-3 meals per day plus breastfeeding.Start with thick porridge and well-mashed foods. Begin with 2-3 tablespoons and then gradually increase the quantity. Try to include all vegetables including green leafy vegetables in the diet .Dal Khichdi with vegetables is a better option than plain rice porridge. Include sprouted pulses and grains. Give one serving of fruit everyday as a healthy snack.Avoid beverages, fruit juices, biscuits and commercially available cereal mixes.

Hello dear , Fetal renal pyelectasis ( kidney swelling) is a cause for worry only if it is more than 7mm in anterior -posterior plane at more than 28 weeks of pregnancy. So , in your case , if it is 3 mm , then it should be normal . If you are still worried , then a post delivery baby ultrasound of kidneys will crosscheck it and reassure you . Hope that answers your query . Thank you

Yet. It helps in reducing the pain and swelling of mouth ulcers. Usually in HFMD oral rashes can be painful causing difficulty in swallowing food, or even the child's saliva. This oral gel can provide some relief, please feel free to visit your pediatrician in case the rashes do not improve.

Management depends on size of the swelling in follow up scan done after birth of the baby. If your doctor has reassured you, it must of very small size which has high chances of settling in post birth scans. Can discuss with your doctor in detail.
