I'm concerned, thoughare these meds safe to use every single day? And how long are we supposed to keep this up?

View allI'm on the 11th day with chicken pox and all my blisters seemed to have scabbed over, but now I've noticed two new ones popping up. Should I be worried about this? Is it normal for new blisters to appear at this point?
It is not uncommon for new blisters to appear even after the initial ones have scabbed over. This does not necessarily mean that the chicken pox is returning. However, it is important to continue practicing good hygiene to prevent any potential complications.You should continue to take anti-virals and practice self isolation to prevent further spread of the virus.

My little girl is 7 months and a few days old, and she weighs 8.8 kg. She's been having this dry cough, especially noticeable when she sleeps, but otherwise, she's doing great. When she was around 5 months, the doctor recommended maxtra syrup for her cough. Is it okay for me to give her the maxtra syrup now, and if so, what's the appropriate dose for her weight?
That could be due to allergy,try to identify the allergen and avoid it, visit Pediatrician for evaluation and appropriate management and corrected dose and frequency

The ideal time for tongue tie surgery, or frenotomy, in babies is generally recommended within the first few months, often during the first month of life.
