A 3-year-old child in for a well-child visit.

Parents may check on their child's health during well-child visit to ensure that they are growing and developing normally. Well-child visits often begin a few days after birth and last until the kid becomes 18 years old.

When a person's blood pressure is consistently elevated above normal over the course of several readings, hypertension is identified as the condition. Blood pressure typically rises with age and height in childhood and adolescence.

A kid or teenager is diagnosed with hypertension if, after numerous measurements over three visits or more, their average blood pressure is at or above the 95th percentile for their age, sex, and height.

elixir [45]

Breathing starts at the nose and mouth. You inhale air into your nose or mouth, and it travels down the back of your throat and into your windpipe, or trachea. Your trachea then divides into air passages called bronchial tubes.


For your lungs to perform their best, these airways need to be open during inhalation and exhalation and free from inflammation or swelling and excess or abnormal amounts of mucus.


The LungsAs the bronchial tubes pass through the lungs, they divide into smaller air passages called bronchioles. The bronchioles end in tiny balloon-like air sacs called alveoli. Your body has over 300 million alveoli.


The alveoli are surrounded by a mesh of tiny blood vessels called capillaries. Here, oxygen from the inhaled air passes through the alveoli walls and into the blood.



After absorbing oxygen, the blood leaves the lungs and is carried to your heart. Your heart then pumps it through your body to provide oxygen to the cells of your tissues and organs.


As the cells use the oxygen, carbon dioxide is produced and absorbed into the blood. Your blood then carries the carbon dioxide back to your lungs, where it is removed from the body when you exhale.
