Dengue in Children: Early Symptoms, Warning Signs
Dengue is a viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes. When the virus enters a child's body, it lowers blood platelets and affects blood vessels. Many parents ask: Is dengue dangerous for babies? Yes, babies and infants face a higher risk of dehydration and sudden platelet drops, making early medical attention essential.
Recurrent Cough in Children: Allergy, Asthma, or Infection?
It is important to understand what a recurrent cough actually is. It's not just a single, lingering cold. A recurrent cough is defined by repeated episodes of coughing. This could mean a cough that lasts much longer than the typical week or two after a cold, or a cough that comes and goes frequently—even when the child appears completely well in between episodes.
