Question 4

i am wondering what caused infant aggressive behavior after hospitalization?

Accepted Answer

Stress ; hospitals: It can be very stressful for infants and children to be in a hospital setting. All the blood draws, and unfamiliar faces and setting can cause them to be in a protective mode. This could lead them to be aggressive. Comforting them and talking to hem calmly alleviates their fear and will gradually return to normalcy.

Question 5

is a milk allergy in an infant a symptom of autism?

Accepted Answer

No, it is not: A milk allergy can occur at any time. I developed it two years ago. This is a pure milk allergy without any difficulty with lactose intolerance. I have a daughter with the same condition and yet my autistic grandson does not have that symptoms at all.

Question 6

my infant son was diagnosed with congenital torticollis. could this be a symptom of something more serious?

Accepted Answer

Depends: This is usually quite evident on the initial newborn exam.The baby can be folded into a distorted position that they do not find uncomfortable, that includes neck,jaw and other facial changes.It usually reflects distorted position in the womb. Infants with abnormal neck vertebrae can have a similar appearance, but the exam differs.Some infants acquire torticolas from birth trauma.

Question 7

how can my severe tbi from infant abuse still affect me today? i.e: impulse control, irrational behavior, anxiety, etc.. how can i stop it or treat it

Accepted Answer

Discuss with doctor : Recommend starting by seeing your primary care doctor for a complete examination and appropriate testing as needed. Based on the findings your doctor may recommend referral for further evaluation to either a neurologist, psychiatrist and/or other mental health specialist for treatment. You may have more than one medical condition contributing to your current presentation. Hope this helps. Best.

Question 8

i have an 11 year old who suffered from bacterial meningitis as an infant and i am seeing a lot of troubles in her now. she is having behavior issues ?

Accepted Answer

Maybe/not related: I would neither assume or exclude the early infection as related to todays behavior problem. It will not change the need or approach to help her work trough her issues. A consultation with &amp; help of a behavioral specialist can often help a parent develop the skillset needed to manage.

Question 9

my 7 yo grandson is aggressive, has a bad temper, argumentative.  not much fun.  his mom said his nursery was decorated in red.  a friend said that red in an infants room would cause aggressive behavior. is this true? if so, what help can we get?

Accepted Answer

: I would call the red issue a myth. I would also encourage you to get the kid &amp; his family into family therapy. If you do not get him settled into a normal frame of mind/reactions by age 8 you can plan on him either being jailed or institutionalized by his adulthood if not sooner.

Question 10

what does "238.0 neoplasm of uncertain behavior of bone and articular cartilage" mean on a babies discharge papers?   how do you test newborns for it?

Accepted Answer

Red flag: The very fact that you have to write healthtap suggests to me that there has been a terrible breach in communication. This may be anything from a paperwork error to a failure to communicate with you about a grave illness. "neoplasms of uncertain behavior" means a rare tumor that the pathologist cannot say with certainty either is or is not cancer. Demand an explanation of your physician.
