Little ones have their own way of saying “ouch” – some cry, some cling, some go quiet. When these moments come, Panado®’s Paediatric Range of syrups get to work immediately1 delivering the trusted2 pain relief South African families have relied on for generations.
Pain Doesn’t Always Look Like Pain
While older children can usually tell you how they’re feeling, younger ones may have a harder time explaining what they’re feeling and exactly where it hurts. They do, however, give us clues by certain behaviour. A baby may arch their back, draw up their legs, or cry in a tone that sounds different from usual. Some become unusually fussy or restless, while others withdraw and lose interest in eating or playing.3 You may also notice changes in their facial expressions, such as a furrowed brow and tightly closed eyes.4
Even though infants are still developing and can’t exactly say, “Mommy, I’ve got a throbbing headache, could you pass the paracetamol?”, they absolutely do feel pain, and the good news is that their pain can be managed and treated.4
