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?

View allI have a 14-month-old daughter, and since yesterday her palms and feet have been really warm. Her temperature was 102.3, but now it's around 100. She's only got two teeth so far and her gums seem sore. Could this be because of teething? What do you think?
It is possible that your daughter's symptoms are related to teething. To help alleviate her discomfort and reduce her fever, you can give her infant acetaminophen suspension. Consult the medication label or your pediatrician for specific dosing instructions. Additionally, you can provide her with teething toys or a cold washcloth to chew on to help soothe her sore gums. If her symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with her pediatrician for further evaluation.

Is it okay to take Montek LC for a whole month? My doctor told me to, but I'm breastfeeding and just want to make sure it's safe.
Very low levels of montelukast appear in breastmilk. Montelukast is approved for use in children as young as 6 months of age and has been used in neonates in dosages far greater than the amounts in breastmilk. Amounts ingested by the infant would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants No special precautions are required.
