Fevers in an 8-month-old infant can be concerning, and taking appropriate steps to ensure their well-being is essential. Here are some general recommendations: 1. Consult a Paediatrician: Contact your paediatrician or healthcare provider for personalised guidance based on your baby's symptoms and medical history. 2. Monitor Temperature: Use a digital thermometer to check your baby's temperature. A rectal thermometer is most accurate for infants. A fever is typically a rectal temperature above 100.4°F (38°C). Seek Immediate Medical Attention for a newborn with any fever or an infant who appears very ill or has a persistent fever. 3. Keep Hydrated: Ensure your baby stays well-hydrated by offering breast milk, formula, or small sips of water for older infants. 4. Dress Comfortably: Dress your baby in lightweight, breathable clothing to regulate their temperature. Avoid heavy blankets. 5. Room Temperature: Maintain a comfortable room temperature between 68-72°F (20-22°C). 6. No Ice or Alcohol: Do not use ice or alcohol to reduce their temperature. 7. Fever Medication: If your paediatrician advises, give the recommended infant fever-reducing medication like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Follow the dosing instructions carefully. Never give medication without consulting your doctor. 8. Use Infant Medication: Ensure you use medications specifically designed for infants, not adult medications. 9. Observe Symptoms: Pay attention to changes in behaviour, feeding, or breathing difficulties. Share this information with your healthcare provider. Fever can signal an underlying issue, so promptly contact your paediatrician for personalised advice and treatment recommendations. Your baby's health is the top priority.

Water comes from eyes continuously and not open in direct sunlight

Dr. Bhavya GuptaExpert

Hello Anuj Yadav ji,

Aankhon se lagataar paani aana aur dhoop mein aankhein na khul paana dono milkar kisi aankhon ki sensitivity ya medical condition ka sanket de sakte hain. Yahaan aapko clear guidance di gayi hai:

Aankhon Se Paani Aana Aur Dhoop Mein Na Khulna – Sambhavit Kaaran:

  • Conjunctivitis (aankhon ka infection) – redness, itching, aur watering common hai

  • Dry Eye Syndrome – aankhon mein sukhapan hone par aankhen watery feel karti hain

  • Allergic reaction – dhool, dhuaan, ya pollen se allergy ho sakti hai

  • Photophobia – dhoop mein aankh na khulna light sensitivity ke kaaran hota hai

  • Blocked tear duct – paani drain nahi hone ke kaaran aankhon se continuously beh sakta hai

Kya Karna Chahiye:

  • Direct sunlight aur screen exposure se thoda bachiye

  • Clean, soft cotton se aankhon ko gently pochhiye (rub na karein)

  • RO ya clean water se din mein 2–3 baar aankhein dhoiye

  • Over-the-counter eye drops bina doctor ke advice ke use na karein

  • Agar redness, pain, ya vision blur ho raha ho to eye specialist se turant consult karein

Aankhon ka dhyaan zaroori hai – der na karein.
