Question 1

I'm worried about my 11-month-old baby who weighs 9kg and has vomited twice. How much Calpol suspension should I give her? Is there any specific dosage I need to follow?

Accepted Answer

For an 11-month-old baby weighing 9kg, the recommended dosage of Calpol Suspension (containing paracetamol) is:

- 2.5-5 mL (60-120 mg) every 4-6 hours, as needed.

However, since your baby has vomited twice, consider the following:

- Consult your pediatrician before administering Calpol Suspension.
- Start with a small dose (2.5 mL or 60 mg) to check for tolerance.
- Monitor your baby's temperature and vomiting.
- If vomiting persists or worsens, seek medical attention.

Accepted Answer

Loose and painful testicles can be concerning.

Possible causes:

1. Varicocele (enlarged veins)
2. Hydrocele (fluid accumulation)
3. Epididymitis (inflammation)
4. Testicular torsion (twisted spermatic cord)

Nutritional deficiencies are unlikely to be the primary cause.

The urologist's assessment and echo test results suggest no underlying structural issues.

However, to alleviate symptoms, consider:

1. Wearing supportive underwear
2. Applying warm compresses
3. Managing stress
4. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle

Schedule a follow-up with your urologist to re-evaluate and address any concerns.
