Tethered Cord (TC) is a disorder in which the spinal cord is âstuckâ to a structure within the spine such as dura, scar tissue from a previous operation, a bony spicule or even a tumor.ethered Cord Syndrome can be difficult to diagnose in babies and children since the symptoms may be subtle and insidious over time.
Give your child acetaminophen (Tylenol, others). If your child is age 6 months or older, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) is OK, too. Read the label carefully for proper dosage. Don't give aspirin to an infant or toddler.
For kids under 6 months, infant acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) is the only recommended fever reducer. Older babies and kids can also take children's ibuprofen (such as Motrin or Advil), which is more effective at fighting fever but also somewhat more likely to cause stomach irritation.lso call your pediatrician if your child is under 2 and her fever lasts more than 24 hours (for older kids, you can wait three days before calling unless she has symptoms suggestive of seasonal flu or H1N1).
