I'm really worried about my five-month-old son. He's been dealing with asthma since he was two months old, and our doctor has him on Budecort 100 inhaler and Salbair transhaler, two times a day. I'm concerned, thoughare these meds safe to use every single day? And how long are we supposed to keep this up?

I'm really worried about my 9-year-old daughter. She fell down the stairs and hurt her back. It's swollen about 3 cm above the base of her spine, and she's complaining about pain in her knees, even though she didn't hit them. She also feels pain in her back when she lifts small things like her iPad. We've been using an ice pack on the swollen area, and she's lying on her belly right now. She can still walk and sit, but her back is very painful. The swelling is starting to go down a bit. I'm worried and not sure what to do next or what to watch out for. Could this lead to something serious? What should I be looking out for?

I'm really worried because I accidentally got a drop of nasal saline into my 5-month-old baby's eye. Could this affect their eyesight? I'm feeling really anxious about it, and I'd love some guidance.

Mistakenly nasal saline drops getting into your 5-month-old baby's eye can cause some irritation, but it is unlikely to cause any long-term problems with eyesight. To help alleviate any discomfort and prevent infection, you can gently flush the eye with clean water. If the irritation persists or if you notice any redness, swelling, or discharge from the eye, please consult with your pediatrician.

Can I give suji halwa or kheer to my 8-month-old boy if he's been having loose stools for a week? Is suji good for him right now?

For an 8-month-old baby experiencing loose stools, it is important to focus on easily digestible foods. Suji (semolina) can be a good option as it is gentle on the stomach and can help firm up the stools. You can prepare suji halwa with minimal sugar and ghee for your baby. Additionally, you can also give your baby rice-based foods like rice water or rice cereal. Make sure to continue breastfeeding or formula feeding to prevent dehydration. If the loose stools persist or worsen, please consult a pediatrician for further evaluation and management.
