What could it be? |

Eye pain is not likely to be due to eye

Hello babita |
| Babita |
Hello doctor, I recently went to visit
my friend and could not help notice that her 3 month baby was crying too much |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
3 month old babies will cry. But if too
much the cause has to be found |
| Babita |
When I asked her about it she said
there's something weird the child cries in the afternoon or evening uncontrollbly, is
there some reason to worry or is it natural |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
It could be anything from hunger to cold
|
| Dr
C H Asrani |
Boy or Girl? |
| Babita |
Boy |
| Babita |
But it isn't recent she says it atarted
about a month ago |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
Itcould be phimosis or balanitis |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
That is inflamation of the tip of penis |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
A good Family Physicians should be able
to diagnose |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
There has to be a cause. No child will
cry for no reason |
| Babita |
But why does the child cry only at a
particular time like evening or afternoon |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
It may be at that time about to pass
urine and/or hungry |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
Babita if there is a pattern, there HAS
to be a cause for it. |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
Pester her doctor till he diagnoses |
| Babita |
I'll telll her to go meet a family
physician as soon as possible, thanks a lot for the advice |

Hello doctor, my child has recently been
bitten by a stray dog, he has been given the 14 injections, is there any other precaution
I should take? |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
Nowadays no one gives 14 injections we
have sophisticated vaccines of which only 5 are required & that too on the arm and not
on the abdomen. Dr C H Asrani: Do not worry. 14 injections are enough |
| Dr
C H Asrani |
