Question 1

My 3-year-old son has been having loose watery stools for the past day. I've tried some home remedies, but there's not much improvement. He's also complaining of stomach pain when passing stools. He's 10 kg. Can you suggest a medicine for diarrhea that would help?

Question 2

Hi doctor, my baby is 30 days old. He was fair when he was born, but his skin has gotten darker over time. Ive been using Tedibar soap, but Im not sure if thats causing it. Could this be because of the summer heat, or is there another reason? Please ...

Accepted Answer

The darkening of your baby's skin tone is likely due to natural melanin production and adaptation to the environment, rather than the soap or summer heat; continue using gentle, fragrance-free soap like Tedibar, and consider consulting your pediatrician to rule out any underlying conditions, but in most cases, this change is harmless and may stabilize over time

Question 3

My 8-month-old baby has a really blocked nose, and the Nasivion 0.01 doesnt seem to be helping. He weighs around 9 kg. Can I try the 0.025 dosage instead? Also, Im wondering if a nebulizer would be a good option for him. Any advice?

Question 4

My 6-month-old baby accidentally ate a corner of paper. I managed to get some out of his mouth, but I'm still worried. What should I do now to make sure he's okay? Should I be concerned or take any specific steps?

Accepted Answer

Minors ingesting minuscule paper pass them through stools. If the child has any sort of choking, gagging, fast breathing please make sure to go to the local paediatrician.

Question 5

My son is 5 and a half months old and he has a cold and cough. His doctor suggested giving him Ambrolite-D, but I'm concerned because its also mentioned for adults and includes dry cough syrup. Is it safe to give him this medication at his age?

Accepted Answer

Ambrolite-D is a combination of an antihistamine and a decongestant, commonly used for treating cold and cough in adults. While it may be prescribed for infants in specific doses, it's important to follow your doctor's recommendation regarding the exact dosage for your 5.5-month-old son. Please avoid self-medication and consult your pediatrician if you have concerns about its safety for your child.

Question 6

My 4-year-old child has been having loose motions. What syrup or treatment should I give him to help with this?

Accepted Answer

A child of 4 years old suffering from loose motions can be given syrup containing Racecadotril. The recommended dosage for Racecadotril syrup in children is 1.5 mg per kg of body weight per dose, to be taken 3 times a day. It is important to consult with a pediatrician for proper evaluation and guidance.
