From the Hepatitis B vaccine at birth to the MMR at 15 months — a clear, printable vaccination schedule for your child from birth to 5 years, as recommended for Indian children.

When to See a Doctor

You should consult a specialist if you experience persistent or worsening symptoms, if symptoms affect your quality of life, or if you have a family history of related conditions. Dr. G. Srikanthi Sanghamitra recommends scheduling a consultation proactively rather than waiting for symptoms to become severe.

“The best time to address a health concern is before it becomes a crisis. Preventive care and early intervention are always more effective — and more affordable — than treating advanced disease.”
