It looks like a wart, and about the size of a pencil eraser. Its just above her left armpit on her shoulder. What would cause this to happen? Is there anything we should be concerned with? Should it be removed or will it go away on its own? |  My six-month-old daughter started to have seizures. She had 3 on Thursday, 20-30 on Friday, 2 on Saturday and none since then. All she does is stop, roll her eyes to the back of her head and then cry. We are waiting on the results of an EEG. But can you give us more information on what could be happening and why? |  My 8-month-old has seborrhea on her eyelids; they are very red and itchy. Is there anything I can put on her eyelids that will not hurt her eyes? |  My 6-year-old has just had a positive reading on her Mantoux test. What does this mean in regard to disease and treatment? |  My two-year-old daughter wakes up many nights in a fit of terror, screaming, hitting, and pushing away. Her pediatrician said that the problem is nightmares and will pass. We have tried everything and it does not seem to subside. |  Our daughter was born with polydactyly, having an extra pinky on both hands.

I can't seem to find an effective remedy for this. What causes this and how can I get rid of it? |  I was half listening to the television the other night and heard something about kids dying from the choking game. What is that? How can I tell if my child might be playing this game? |  My son always seems to be in trouble at school. His teacher told me she thinks he has sensory processing disorder. What is that? | | | | |
