I'm really worried about my 1-year-9-month-old who's been showing signs of pneumonia. The doctor already gave her a dose of nebulization and some antibiotics, but she's still in pain and having trouble breathing. Is it okay if I give her a second dose of nebulization after four hours?

View allMy daughter had her 6-week vaccinations on March 8th, and since then, she's had a lump on her thigh. The doctor suggested using hot water treatment, but there's still a small lump there. Could you give me some advice on what else I should do or if this is normal?
Is it normal to get a lump after an injection? Getting a lump under your skin is a normal and expected injection site reaction. The lump may be painful or tender. As with other symptoms related to injection site reactions, get medical attention if your symptoms last longer than 1 to 2 days or get worse.

I'm really worried about my 2-month-old son who's been on formula milk since birth. He recently got pneumonia and was hospitalized. Sometimes, I hear crackling sounds when he breathes, and I'm concerned there might be fluid in his lungs. Could it be a lung abscess? He's generally playful and feeds well, but sometimes he breathes fast after feeding. His chest seems fine most of the time, so I'm confused. Is lung abscess something that develops after chest congestion, or can it happen without any obvious congestion?

How much Flexon syrup should I give my child who weighs 12 kilograms? Should I calculate the dosage like we do for paracetamol at 15ml per kg? I'm a bit confused about how to get this right for my little one.
-For a child weighing 12 kg, the dose of Flexon syrup should generally be calculated based on the recommended dose per kg, similar to how you calculate paracetamol. However, the exact dosage of Flexon syrup varies, so it's best to follow the instructions
