The flu can still be a potentially serious disease that can lead to hospitalization and sometimes even death. Though every flu season is different many people are hospitalized and thousands die from flu-related illnesses every year. A yearly flu shot is the best way to help protect you, and your community, against the flu.
Fever is a symptom of an illness, most commonly an infection. Fever in babies under six months of age can be an indication of a serious illness and your child's practitioner/doctor should be contacted promptly.
Diaper rash is caused by irritation of the skin from urine and bowel movements. Baby's skin becomes sore and hurts when the diaper is wet or soiled.
Croup is a spasm (tightening of the muscles) around the larynx (voice box). This spasm causes frightening sounds. Your child will have a cough that sounds like a seal barking.
Chicken pox is very contagious, mild disease caused by herpes zoster virus. It can affect all ages, but most common in children.
BMI, or body mass index, uses height and weight in a mathematical formula to determine a child's weight status compared to other children. BMI is not a measurement of body fat.
