Severity depends on the infection, age of the child, etc.
If the fever EVER peaks around 103 Fahrenheit, you should seek medical help immediately.
If it's a very young child, or you have reason to be concerned, seek a Pediatrician's advice. Instinct is your best tool - if you think it's too hot or has gone on too long, the most you'll get from taking action is a Doc telling you it's normal and a bill from the hospital.
When babies are born, their circulatory system (the heart and blood system) is going through a lot of changes. It can take up to 2 days - and occasionally a little longer - for the tiny capillaries (vessels) in the hands and feet to open up and have good circulation. It's kind of scary sometimes if you see a baby's hand all blue, especially if you can't get a good look at its face, but blueness of the hands and feet is normal, and may come and go, depending on whether they're crying and moving, or sleeping. This results in the hands and feet being a little cooler than you might expect, but their bodies are designed to tolerate this for a time. This blueness, called acrocyanosis, is a normal finding in a newborn. The blueness that you should be concerned about starts around the face, especially around the eyes, nose, and mouth. It is a sign of central cyanosis and means that there is not enough oxygen in the blood.
If a baby is breached, the doctor will try and turn your baby. Many times, you will have to have the baby by C-section.
Its not suggested by doctors to swim with any kind of open sore. Coat it with vaseline if you have to, but swimming with a cold sore in a public pool is considered horribly rude and inconsiderate. You might be asked to leave.
simple answer, goto the doctor! It's serious enough to be noticable to you and have it hang around for months and obviously it's abnormal. Why take the chance? It could be anything from a cyst, to tissue growth, to even cancer......... get it checked out!
This could also be a case of Lymphangioma. A doctor would probably order some tests including a radiological/ sonographic examination.
The majority of OB/GYNs recommend to wait a minimum of 6 months before conceiving again.
Progeria is a genetic disease in which premature rapid aging occurs. Children at a relatively young age take on the appearance of old people, with wrinkles, joint pains, and the like. Progeria is not a communicable disease.

The cause of the brain, neck, and spine damage that can result from shaken baby syndrome is brute force. The violent shaking of a baby by a much stronger adult conveys a tremendous amount of energy to the infant.
The question is incomplete. The blood type, (or ABO group), for only one parent is there. Positive refers to the presence of an antigen for the Rh group . The child will therefore be Rh positive since both parents are Rh positive. One parent's blood type is O. The other parent can have O, A, B, or AB as a bloodgroup. Without knowing both parents blood groups, and not just the Rh status, there is no way of knowing the bloodtype of the child.
In efforts to reduce arm injuries from too much throwing, sports medicine experts in conjunction with USA Baseball have developed pitch count limits for young throwers based on age. For a 12 year old pitcher, the recommendation is no more than 85 pitches per game. The same authorities have also developed recommendations for the number of rest days between pitching performances based on age and number of pitches thrown in the previous game.
Molluscum is caused by a pox virus. It's spread by skin-to-skin contact.
apart from surgery, some have to do every thing, inserting urine catheters, inserting nasogastric tubes, changing stoma bags, give rectal medicines, they are the unrecognised back bone of the health care system, they supply 24 hour care 365 days a year, all credit to them. we recognise soldiers, but forget these heros.
well, it could be hard to do, but, get some warm water and pour 1 table spoon of salt it to the water. then try to get the baby to put the salty water it their mouth and then spit it out. repeat this several times.

well, alkaline substances cause things to be alkali. This is my theory but I have much research to do, contact me if you wish to become part of my great discovery. I need all the help I can get, I also will be conducting experiments at CERN in a top secret facility so this information is of the highest level.
Most of them should be taken after food. But a few like Roxythromycin and Azithromycin have to be taken on an empty stomach as food interferes with their absorption.
You should check it out with your doctor, but I'm pretty sure it's possible. I have a friend who has a son who's had asthma since he was under a year old. WE JUST FOUND OUT THAT OUR 5 MONTH OLD DOES HAVE ASTHMA! SHE HAS HAD A CONSTANT COUGH FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS BUT NO FEVER! I AM JUST HAPPY THAT WE FOUND OUT BEFORE THINGS GOT REALLY BAD!
