CASES
I am writing about some cases I have seen at my clinic . So I can give Advices to thefamilies .
1- Acute Gastro enteritis from age 1year to age 13 years . most
children come to the clinic complaining of :
1) Vomiting.
2) Diarrhea .
3) Fever.
4) Abd. Pain
5) With or with out dehydration.
Some need investigations
Some need admissions to the hospital , but mostly treated outpatient. Advices to the family :-
1 – Any child has these symptoms should be taken to the nearest clinic for exemination.
2 – Not all have teething problem as mother says .
3 – Sometimes need to start with O.R.S.
2 – Wheezy chest + infections now days because of change of the weathier

irritability ) .
Advices :
Any child has the all or some of the above should be taken to
Pediatric specialist for evaluation because sometimes may lead to chest infections .
