My child has been dealing with a cough for almost a year now, and we've tried multiple government hospitals, but nothing seems to be working. I can't afford private doctors or medication. Is there anything you suggest we can do?

View allI'm really concerned about my 9-month-old baby. He's been vomiting since morning and hasn't eaten anything all day. He keeps crying, and it's breaking my heart. I'm not sure what could be wrong. Yesterday, we took him to the mall, and he tried a spoonful of halwa. This morning, he had some egg and roti with milk. Now, he's vomited at least 34 times; it's all watery. Today's Sunday, and all the local doctors are closed. Any idea what could be causing this or what I should do?
You can take online consultation with pediatrician for evaluation and appropriate management.

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?
Visit your nearest hospital immediately and get xray spine done to look for any fracture and follow your doctors advice

I'm really concerned about my 10-month-old who has hand, foot, and mouth disease. Is it safe for me to continue breastfeeding him? And is it okay to give him a bath while he's sick with this disease?
Yes, it is safe to continue breastfeeding your 10-month-old baby even if they have hand, foot, and mouth disease. In fact, breast milk can provide important nutrients and antibodies to help your baby recover faster. Yes, it is okay to bathe a baby with hand, foot, and mouth disease. Keeping the baby clean can help prevent secondary infections. Just make sure to pat the skin dry gently after bathing to avoid irritating any blisters.
