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.
Do not give Tylenol for more than 72 hours without discussing your child's condition with our office. Formerly, concentrated infant drops with a concentration of 80mg/0.8ml were available for use in babies.
