Question 1

my 10 month old baby has very thick toenails, like you'd see with arterial disease. he's had this since birth; what could cause this in an infant?

Accepted Answer

See Your Doctor: Your 10 mos old has "very thick toenails since birth". Congenital anomalies of the nails, hair, skin, teeth can be caused by a group of genetic defects called Ectodermal Dysplasias, of which there are numerous types. Involved body parts can be poorly developed or absent. Nails can be thick, misshapen or rough but usually cause no problems. See your doctor for diagnosis, genetic history, &amp; therapy.

Question 2

how can you tell if your 10 month old infant has an ear infection?

Accepted Answer

Examination.: The only way to be sure a child has an ear infection is to look at the eardrum.  See a doc and have this done, if your child is sick, please.

Question 3

dosage of bromfed (brompheniramine) for 14 lb infant? ped prescribed my 10 month old bromfed (brompheniramine) for her cough:  dose is 1/2 tspn/4hrs. def not the right dose for her.

Accepted Answer

Do not give.: There are many studies showing that over-the-counter cough medicines do not work for children, and in fact, many can cause side effects in some kids. In my opinion, these medicines do not work and do more harm. I hope you child feels better soon.

Question 4

my 10 month old baby boy pass small amount of urine frequently.showing no sign of pain. was this normal?

Accepted Answer

It happens: Infants can randomly wet small amounts for no particular reason. It is one of the reason modern super absorbent diapers are such a good product. It might suggest some irritation at the pee hole (soap effect), but I don't worry about it. If a kid is soaking through diapers frequently I do want to investigate, but not so much for 10 mo leakers.

Question 5

hi doctors, is feeding my 10 month old baby boy lentils 5 times a week for lunch, or is this amount too much? thank you

Accepted Answer

Lentils: Lentils is a fine food and as long as the baby hasn' t tired of eating them thats fine. Just remember lentils are heavy gas producers.

my 10 month old baby boy, have two lower incisors. now upper incisors startd to come out. one central incisor came out few days back. as i was expecting another central incisor to come out of upper jaw, unexpectedly lateral incisor came next to it?

Accepted Answer

: It is not unusual, nothing to concern. Take care.

Question 7

10 month old baby boy has white coated tongue (not spots)  and bad breath.  from what i read, probably not thrush, what else could it be?

Accepted Answer

Could Be Thrush: Frequently, thrush has a white coating over the tongue and if you wipe the tongue gently with a gauze, the classic red "spots" will show up. Either way, you need to have your son evaluated to determine what is causing this. Either a dentist or pediatrician can help you.
