Avatar f tn I feel Gerd and milk allergy are grossly overdiagnosed in infants. Lactose overload has been diagnosed in breast-fed infants now - and I believe it is also found in babies.
Avatar f tn I just had gas drops and baby Tylenol. Other than that if you need anything a doctor will recommend it. But, you shouldn't really need anything much more than that for the first couple months.

Avatar f tn I had this problem in my first trimester, I had really bad trapped gas it was so painful I would lay on my side just waiting for relief and it would take forever. I would try different positions to try and get some release but it only lasted my first trimester, by my second it went away thank god. Maybe talk to your doctor for any help, or look online for suggestions. I'm pretty sure there is stuff you can take to help relieve the gas.

Avatar n tn Hi Aidens_Mom, Ya it's new to me also that asthma causes a 103 degree fever! Asthma can lead to pneumonia but not the other way around. When steroids are inhaled into the lungs to treat asthma it creates an immune suppression and can make the person more susceptible to infection. This is a scary thing for a mother not to mention your son and should be investigated further. I would recommend they refer you to a Immunologist,and have the level of antibodies your son has evaluated.

Avatar n tn Priapism is known to cause swelling because of the internal injuries it causes. Infants as well as adults can get an injury in their penis just by having their penis trapped by clothing when a solid erection is occuring. Bending an erection is even more harmful. Many penis enargement tricks or exercises are known to cause injuries. A good rule is if it hurts don't do it and if you have any numbness the area may not be feeling the injury and you could injur unaware.
Avatar m tn I had a new cut on my finger maybe 10 minutes old that was NOT bleeding anymore and I pumped gas and opened the door at the gas station etc touching things with that finger. I am not sure what is on the door handles etc. what is my risk from something like this? 3. Is kissing or sharing a drink or food proven to be a risk for hiv infection? Thank you so much everyone.
1361044 tn?1277598308 Honestly, in my opinion, babies are so wrapped up in this new world, all the new things going in for them, that a little cold (virus) hardly slows them down. it could be your baby is behind because she doesn't feel well all the time, and THAT is holding her back. Maybe not, but in either case I would push for them to figure it out. Chalking it all down to a virus is a lazy, sorry excuse. My point is, YOU DO know your child more than anyone.
Avatar n tn This is the third question you have asked about the same problem. 1. besides thyroid eye disease (TED) and space occupying tumors the next most common problem would be orbital inflammatory 'pseudo-tumor' 2. No the eye muscles don't get inflammed without a cause. 3. No the eye only gets larger in infants and children. In adults the sclera is rigid and won't enlarge like the soft, rubber like sclera of youth.
Avatar f tn Gas and bloat could be caused by the whey shakes alone, Whey is a source of fiber, fiber causes gas in some cases. You get gas and pain from bloat when the "Bubble" of air or gas in the stomache or colon is too large to pass, so the expansion causes pain, a OTC drug called Simethicone breaks these bubble up into smaller particles or bubbles, and allows them to pass much easier.

Avatar m tn lately i'm feeling bloating in my stomach and change in stool odor. its like more gas i have to release and it smells bad when i poop. what might this be? i've been really stressed lately and too anxious as well. i think i'm depressed coz of frequent mood swings and panic attacks. and after eatin when i feel like full and burp it feels kinda sour. can IBS cause this or is it some kind of bacteria. i feel like this since after i made out with a girl.
Avatar n tn I was wondering if you could tell me what to do. We have always gave him gas drops and changed his bottles and they were working for a while, now we are getting gas again. BTW my son is 41/2 months.
Avatar f tn t digesting like they use too it causes heart burn as well as built up gas which is why half of us are always constipated lol. My gas cramps came on strong this morning and as soon as I got up and moved around so did the gas!!!
