Pediatrician in Poltava

What does a pediatrician do?

Pediatrician monitors the health of a child from birth and knows the history of its illnesses and hereditary predisposition to various diseases. In the process of a child’s growth, a pediatrician does the following:

• diagnoses and treats childhood illnesses, infections, and injuries;
• conducts examinations of a child and observes its developmental delays;
• controls vaccination;
• if necessary, refers to subject matter specialists.

You need to contact a pediatrician not only if a child is sick. From the moment of the baby’s birth, it is necessary to undergo scheduled examinations monthly throughout the first year of life, and after a year in accordance with the vaccination calendar. Unscheduled consultation with a pediatrician is necessary if a child has a fever, shortness of breath, or other symptoms of the disease. You should consult a doctor if your child over the age of one year has:

• general weakness;
• coughing;
• nasal congestion;
• pallor of the skin;
• nausea;
• vomiting;
• shortness of breath after physical exertion.

The range of childhood diseases is very wide. Therefore, in case of symptoms of the disease in your child, it is important to contact a pediatrician immediately and not to self-medicate.
