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?

my baby has a tongue tie and I'm worried about breastfeeding issues. Is there a quick surgery option that heals in 10 days or any medicine to help with this? I've heard some kids recover fast after treatment but not sure what options are out there

A quick frenectomy (surgical release of the tongue tie) is a minor procedure that can be done in a few minutes and heals within 7-10 days. Consult a pediatric dentist or pediatric ENT specialist.

my 6-month-old baby has undescended testicles on both sides - is there any way to treat this without surgery or will he need an operation? I'm really worried about putting him through surgery at this age

For undescended testicles in a 6-month-old, surgery is typically recommended if the testicles haven't descended on their own by that age. While some cases may resolve spontaneously, leaving them undescended can increase the risk of future health problems

My daughter's been coughing since October and at first, it was just like any normal cough. After three days of this, we took her to see her pediatrician who prescribed some meds and antibiotics. She's basically been on one medication or another since then. We've even seen a few doctors, like a general physician, another pediatrician, and a pulmonologist, but nothing's working. She coughs so much at night that sometimes she ends up vomiting. We're really worried and feel helpless about her health. She's on an inhaler and other meds for her cough and cold right now. Can someone offer any advice for us concerned parents?

Yes,continue same treatment.Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
