Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Please ask, a 13-month-old baby has a head circumference of 49 cm, is it a symptom of hydrocephalus?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, a 13-month-old baby with a head circumference of 49 cm is slightly larger. Please pay attention to regular follow-up checks and consider a brain CT scan if necessary. It will gradually improve. Wishing you good health. Children's bodies have weaker immunity, so they are prone to pediatric neurology issues. For parents, don't be anxious and should take the child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for the child and use medication reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.
