I'm really worried about my 5-year-old. He's got these prominent bronchovascular markings, and his ESR is at 13. Is this serious? He's been coughing non-stop and always seems to have a fever. His recent blood test shows an absolute lymphocyte count of 5500 and a monocyte count of 9. We've been giving him normal flu medicines and using a nebulizer, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could it be some kind of allergy?

I'm really worried about my 5 and a half month old son. Every morning he starts coughing and his doctor recommended using asthalin in a nebulizer three times a day. Last month, we even had to admit him to the hospital because of breathing issues related to his cough, and they treated him with a nebulizer there too. Can you help me understand what's actually going on with my baby? And is asthalin the right choice for him?

It seems like your baby may be experiencing recurrent respiratory issues, possibly asthma or a similar condition that affects the airways, causing cough and breathing difficulty. Asthalin in a nebulizer can help relax the muscles in the airways, easing his breathing, but it's important to monitor his response and follow up regularly with your doctor for any adjustments in treatment.

I'm wondering if giving formula milk to my 2-month-old baby could have any side effects. I actually have enough breast milk, but my little one's weight hasn't increased much. Our doctor mentioned using MMS milk powder. Should I be concerned about using the formula, or is it generally safe for my baby at this age?

MMS formula feed is considered safe and nutritious for infants. However, if breast milk is available in sufficient quantity, it would be more advisable to give priority to breast milk over formula feed, due to its immunity boosting and psychologically nurturing effects.
