Patient's question:
A few days ago, my baby had a cold, and I took them to the pharmacy for medicine. The doctor said my baby has wide-set eyes and it's very likely to be Trisomy 21 syndrome, so he asked me to go to the hospital for a check-up. I also have slightly wide-set eyes and a low nose. How can I tell if my baby's eye distance is wide?Doctor's answer:
Your baby cannot be diagnosed as a Down syndrome baby based on symptoms alone. It is recommended to have a detailed examination at a local hospital. Your baby's discomfort symptoms are likely due to general developmental issues. Appropriately increase dietary nutrition and pay attention to a balanced diet. The child is threatened by neonatal diseases, so parents must take the child to seek medical treatment immediately to avoid blindly using small advertisements for drugs. Rational medication is necessary. For parents, it is important to closely observe changes in the child's symptoms and do everything possible to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
