Paediatrics

Pediatrics is a medical specialty focused on the health and well-being of infants, children, and adolescents, typically ranging from birth to 18 years old. Pediatricians provide comprehensive medical care, including preventive services, diagnosis, and treatment of illnesses and injuries specific to this age group. They monitor growth and development, administer vaccinations, and address various health concerns such as infections, allergies, chronic conditions, and behavioral issues. Pediatricians also play a vital role in educating parents and caregivers about child health, safety, and nutrition. By promoting early detection and intervention, pediatricians aim to support the healthy growth and development of children, ensuring optimal physical, mental, and emotional health.
