Child Specialist in Indore: General Pediatrics OPD

See a child specialist in Indore for fever, cough, colds, stomach upsets, rashes and routine check-ups, with clear home-care advice and when to come back.

Most visits to a pediatrician are for everyday illnesses: fever, cough, cold, loose motions, ear pain or rashes, along with routine check-ups. At Asian Navkar Hospital, Indore, our general pediatrics OPD is led by Dr. Michelle Shah Jain, MD (Pediatrics), who focuses on treating the illness while avoiding unnecessary antibiotics and tests.

Common Problems We Treat

  • Fever, viral infections, dengue, typhoid and malaria
  • Cough, cold, sore throat, ear infections and wheezing
  • Diarrhoea, vomiting, constipation and tummy pain
  • Skin rashes, eczema and infections
  • Poor appetite, poor weight gain and anaemia
  • Urinary infections

Well-Child Check-Ups

Regular check-ups track growth on WHO charts, development milestones, vision, hearing, teeth and diet, and keep vaccinations up to date. They are also a good time to ask about sleep, screen time and behaviour.

Sensible Use of Antibiotics

Most colds, coughs and fevers in children are caused by viruses and do not need antibiotics. Using antibiotics only when needed protects your child and the community from antibiotic resistance. We explain home care and the warning signs that need a quick review.
