Awareness:
Keep a watchful eye for unusual changes of the body. Many patients have come to see their doctor after a certain concerning problem has been going on for a year or more or after the problem has become much worse. Look for wounds that are not healing, skin problems, ongoing cough, persistent shortness of breath, unresolved pain, lasting fevers, unexplained weight loss, lumps and other new problems which do not go away or continue to worsen with time.
Infants and children daily schedule:
Infants and children do well with predictable schedules for sleep, meals, school and playtime. Avoid erratic sleep patterns which cause unnecessary stress.
