Pediatricians treat children for illness. Common reasons that children see a pediatrician — chickenpox, coughs, colds, ear infections, croup, diarrhea and vomiting, fever, food allergies, and measles and mumps. A pediatric doctor may have to treat children that have illnesses that are unclear or are recurrent, have respiratory issues, bone and joint infections, TB, AIDS, hepatitis and meningitis.
