Should I request further testing or let it go? My son turned 4 in February. At a previous doctor visit for his coughing, runny nose he was checked and on his abdomen she said his liver was enlarged that it was up high so she could feel the grid of it at his rib and they would need to watch it in the future. Would this have anything to do with his allergy/asthma? .He takes zyrtec & singulair daily. Should I push for some actual testing or request he be sent to a liver doctor to ease my mind? He is little for his age and very slender. He weighs just 35 pounds. He has lot of ear problems and sinus infections, but otherwise ok for now. At birth he weighed 9l.11ounces and 20 inches. He was born they said with an infection don't know what and he wouldn't suck so he had to stay in the hospital. After the 3rd day he finally took like 2 ounces and started to suck so sent him home on the 5th day after his birth. I just wonder if something is wrong which has it to do with the infection he had at birth but was told didn't know what it was and later he did come home. Check Out the Answer

Hello, I am working in Baroda. My 2 year old daughter is having infantile (I can't spell it) eczema problem. She gets allergy on wrists, elbows, feet and on cheeks. This appears as some kind of rashes and mainly visible during winter season. While sleeping, she scratches over and cries. Moreover she is having dry skin. When she was a one month baby, we observed that her face became red after her daily bath. We showed to many child specialists, both alopathy and Homeopathy. Everyone tells this is due to some soaps, oils, etc. We used different medicines also. But there is no much change. I observed whenever we go to Hyderabad, her skin looks very bright as compared to staying in Baroda. Other than this problem, she is very active and healthy. Can you please explain why it is so? And how long she has to suffer with this problem? Check Out the Answer

My 17 months daughter wakes up with swollen lids every morning for the last 2-3 weeks. I have taken her to our doctor who asked for a urine test to check protein levels. It turned-up normal. He ruled out ear infection and sinus problems and suggested it may be an allergy. How do I get confirmation of this? She does not seem to have any other symptoms. No redness, no pain or itching or any discharge. The swelling diminishes during the day and by evening it is usually not there at all. Some days it appears to be worse than others. Please let me know what you think. Check Out the Answer
