Dr Phil Kieran: My daughter is tired all the time â should we check her iron levels? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr Phil Kieran is a full-time GP practising in Cork. He previously presented RTE's 'You Should Really See a Doctor' and 'How Long Will You Live?'. My 13-year-old daughter seems tired a lot of the time. I would say she never fully recovered from a virus she picked up last spring. A few friends have suggested that she get blood tests to check for low iron or any other underlying issues. Iâm not sure blood tests are necessary, as she is getting up and out to school each day without any issues. Wh

Dr Phil Kieran is a full-time GP practising in Cork. He previously presented RTE's 'You Should Really See a Doctor' and 'How Long Will You Live?'. â10 shocking medical symptoms parents always overlookâ, and âWe all need to tell our doctor to test our children forâ¦â These are two types of headlines I find unhelpful because they prey on peopleâs fear of missing something serious, and they ignore the damage done by over-medicalising normal experiences. Iâm a GP, and in my day-to-day w
Dr Phil Kieran: When should you call your GP? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr Phil Kieran is a full-time GP practising in Cork. He previously presented RTE's 'You Should Really See a Doctor' and 'How Long Will You Live?'. Working as a GP, I see sick children every day, and parents frequently ask for guidelines as to when they should call the doctor or when it is OK to watch and wait. An exhaustive list isn’t possible here, but here are some signs and symptoms to look out for. When our children are sick, most of us worry about what type of sickness they have. As doctors
Dr Phil Kieran: I'm a GP and here's why antibiotics aren't always the answer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr Phil Kieran is a full-time GP practising in Cork. He previously presented RTE's 'You Should Really See a Doctor' and 'How Long Will You Live?'. “I just want to catch it before it gets worse”. “I always need an antibiotic doctor — my infections never leave of their own accord.” These are the kind of statements I hear daily at my practice, and I am pretty sure that every GP around the country, if not the world, will report the same. Most of us are aware that antibiotics should be prescribed spa
Dr Phil Kieran: My son has nosebleeds three times a week (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr Phil Kieran is a full-time GP practising in Cork. He previously presented RTE's 'You Should Really See a Doctor' and 'How Long Will You Live?'. My 13-year-old son has started to get nosebleeds two to three times a week. They don’t last long — usually just a few minutes — and stop quickly when we pinch his nose. The bleeds mostly happen in the evening or after he plays hurling. Though he knows he shouldn’t, he picks his nose when it’s dry, as he finds the crusted blood annoying. We have no fam
