For individuals with Arnold-Chiari malformation, a bed that provides optimal support and comfort is essential. A medium-firm mattress can help alleviate pressure points while maintaining spinal alignment. Adjustable beds may also be beneficial, allowing users to elevate their heads or legs to reduce pain and improve circulation. Additionally, using supportive pillows can help maintain proper neck and head positioning during sleep.

Yes. The average temperature for a bath or shower is warmer than core body temperature. If a body is left in the tub for long periods of time, body temperature will begin to rise, just like anything else. Your body will react to maintain homeostasis, but its usually not enough to stop the rising temperature. Suggestion? Run a cooler bath, or add cold water if you are feeling too hot. If you are giving a bath to an infant, look at skin color, if the skin is really red, you should be lowering the temperature of the bath water. If you are wondering how hot a bath should be, run some water on the inside of your forearm, that is the most sensitive part of your arm. If its warm, its perfect :)

If there are no other symptoms and it is only occurring over a period of a couple of hours, it is likely that it may be from a dye the child has ingested. For instance, if they drank a large amount of blue Kool-Aid or ate some brightly colored popscicles, their body may just be getting rid of the dyes. If there are other symptoms of something being wrong or it continues for any period of time, it is advisable to contact the child's pediatrician and see what they have to say.

you are bleeding anywhere from your nasal passages to your stomach--blood gives you nausea & causes vomiting. Regardless, you need to go see a doctor. If it is a LOT of blood and vomiting, obviously go to the ER. It could be a nosebleed that was able to empty into your stomach overnight, then it might be an esophageal varicosity that has ruptured, or then it could be a gastric ulcer. Your doc will need a lot more history, though--like whether or not you are a smoker, drinker

im not sure still trying to figure it out.

they often fail to meet new milestones and may even regress, losing mental or physical skills previously learned. When the seizures begin, parents may notice a loss of interest in people and objects in the child's environment

The chances of a child being born with light blue skin are improbable. However, a condition commonly known as "Blue Baby Syndrome" can occur when there is a difference in Rh factor between mother and child. The baby's skin is not actually blue in color, but appears blue because of the lack of oxygenated blood needed to keep the baby alive. This is also known as cyanosis. This syndrome can be fatal if not appropriately treated. Fortunately, it can also be prevented with an injection shortly after the birth of the mother's first child.

This condition causes the skull to bulge because the soft spot becomes hard. If left untreated the baby could die or become severely retarded. The condition can be corrected through surgery by cutting the skull into four quadrants. I cannot remember the name for this condition! The name of the condition is called craniosynostosis.
