    FAQ's

    Paediatric care begins even before a child is born. Our Paediatric experts at Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, will guide you right from when your child is a foetus to 18 years of age.

    Children should undergo wellness checkups twice a year at least till 10 years and annually thereafter. Regular annual wellness checkups are crucial for monitoring your child's physical, mental, and emotional well-being. These regular visits provide the doctor with the opportunity to assess your child comprehensively, identify any potential issues and talk about preventive health care. By maintaining this yearly schedule, the doctors at Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, can closely track any medical developments and ensure timely vaccinations to safeguard your child's health.

    Immunisation is the administration of vaccines to your child. A vaccine is a biological shield designed to protect children from contagious diseases. Immunisation safeguards children from severe and preventable diseases. Without this protective measure, diseases may lead to infections that could seriously affect your child's health.

    The Universal Immunization Programme recommends children receiving vaccinations right from birth, including immunisation against childhood tuberculosis (BCG), polio (OPV), and maternally transmitted Hepatitis B (Hep B vaccine). Subsequent vaccines can be administered according to the National Immunization Schedule, ensuring timely protection against preventable diseases at recommended ages.

    Dental care for children should be started early. Parents should start by cleaning your baby's gums with a soft cloth. As teeth emerge, use a child-sized toothbrush and a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. Encourage regular brushing, supervise until age 6, and schedule dental checkups every six months for preventive care.

    Developmental milestones are extremely important in tracking the growth of your child. Recognizing developmental milestones involves observing actions like crawling, babbling, and reaching for objects. Communication skills, social interactions, and motor development are key indicators. Apollo Hospitals in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, emphasis on regular paediatric checkups facilitate tracking these milestones and addressing any developmental concerns early on.

    It is recommended to address common skin conditions, such as eczema or diaper rash, by keeping the skin clean and moisturised. Use mild soaps and detergents, choose breathable fabrics, and consult a paediatrician for persistent or severe conditions.

    A healthy diet for your children should be every parent's priority. In toddlers and infants, limiting the usage of formula and bottle feeding is recommended. During the growing up years, encouraging a healthy diet involves providing a variety of nutrient-rich foods, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limiting sugary snacks and beverages while fostering positive eating habits contributes to the overall well-being of your child.

    Diabetes in children is usually hereditary and results from the destruction of insulin producing cells in the pancreas. Early signs of Diabetes may include increased thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, and irritability. If you notice these symptoms in your child, promptly consult healthcare professionals from the Paediatric Endocrinology Unit at Apollo Hospitals in Jubilee Hills for evaluation.

    Monitoring your child's sensory health is essential for their overall development. Signs that may indicate a need for vision or hearing screening include:
    • Squinting
    • Rubbing Eyes

    • Difficulty Focusing
    • Delayed Speech
    Regular screenings, particularly before starting school, are instrumental in early detection and intervention. Apollo's Paediatric Ophthalmology Unit at Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, is well equipped to screen and manage any vision and hearing abnormalities.

    Sleep is essential for growing children. Sleep requirements vary with age. Preschoolers generally need 10-13 hours, school-age children benefit from 9-11 hours, and teenagers should aim for 8-10 hours of sleep. Establishing consistent bedtime routines contributes to optimal sleep hygiene.
