    Thank you so much! My toddler had a fever and I wasn't sure if the breathing rate alone was worrisome. This was so informative

    This video was so helpful. It was easy and thorough and went through all of the signs to look for. My grandson is in day 4 of being diagnosed with RSV. My daughter was worried but wasn’t sure if her son is in respiratory distress. I was able to view your video quickly and identify several of the signs you gave and determined that he is in respiratory distress. My daughter is taking him to the ER now. Thank you so much! You can save a life with this educational video!

    Your videos helped me understand everything about my twins health. One of them had a clogged sound when breathing which alarmed me a lot. However their Pd finds nothing. This video came in time. Thank you so much 🎉

      Im so sorry you are going through this. I would make sure to see your child's clinician for further guidance as my video can't go into personal issues

    Please what can we do at home, if our eleven month old grandson has very back dose of Croup, please???

    • @pedsdoctalk
      @pedsdoctalk  11 місяців тому

      If you mean a severe case of croup I'd get them evaluated by a clinician to see if treatment is needed. Check out my UA-cam video on croup for more info. Hope they feel better soon!

    Hi , doc is it okay to give nebulizer to a 1 year old baby every time she has respiratory distress? My pedia gave that nebulizer before, now we just give it to her every she has attack and her breathe back to normal… my concern is … how long we can give her nebulizer?

    • @pedsdoctalk
      @pedsdoctalk  2 місяці тому +1

      It depends on why she was giving the nebulizer to begin with! I would chat with the pediatrician who prescribed it as they know your child/the situation best.
