Children need constant supervision, but what can parents or caregivers do when trouble finds the kiddos? Spencer Pruitt, M.D., Texas Tech Physicians pediatrician, answers our questions about potentially emergency situations such as animal bites or stings, drownings, handling a wild animal or being bitten by one. Dr. Pruitt also answers our questions about children and dehydration and food poisoning and when we should take our child to the emergency room or primary care provider.
