Taking Care of Your Child offers the most recent
information on obesity, behavioral issues, and other critical health
concerns, along with updated immunization schedules and new material on
complementary and alternative medicine. Taking Care of Your Child
is easy to use, even in a crisis. Parents can look up a symptom to find
a complete explanation of probable causes, how serious they are, and
how to relieve the problem at home. Easy-to-follow decision charts show
exactly when to take a child to see a doctor. Covering more than 100
common complaints—like injuries, allergies, and childhood diseases—and
with especially clear advice on handling emergencies, it is the
indispensable guide for parents.
