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 allMy daughter had her 6-week vaccinations on March 8th, and since then, she's had a lump on her thigh. The doctor suggested using hot water treatment, but there's still a small lump there. Could you give me some advice on what else I should do or if this is normal?
Is it normal to get a lump after an injection? Getting a lump under your skin is a normal and expected injection site reaction. The lump may be painful or tender. As with other symptoms related to injection site reactions, get medical attention if your symptoms last longer than 1 to 2 days or get worse.

My baby boy is 9 months old and he's been having loose motions since last Friday. We saw a pediatrician who recommended giving him Nutrolin B twice a day and a Zinc Dry Powder Suspension once a day. Over the weekend, he had about 7 to 8 stools each day. Today, it's been 5 times so far. What's really worrying me is that his last 3 stools have been dark green in color. Should I be concerned about this? Do you think I should take him back to the pediatrician right away?
Consult your pediatrician immediately if you notice: Symptoms 1. Fever > 102F (39C) 2. Vomiting 3. Blood in stool 4. Refusal to feed 5. Signs of dehydration (dry mouth, fewer wet diapers) 6. Dark green stools persisting or worsening Additional Concerns 1. Infection (bacterial or parasitic) 2. Food intolerance (lactose or gluten) 3. Allergic reactions 4. Gastroenteritis (viral infection) Self-Care Measures 1. Continue current treatment (Nutrolin B, Zinc Suspension) 2. Monitor stool frequency, consistency, and color 3. Record temperature, appetite, and overall condition 4. Breastfeed or formula feed frequently 5. Offer electrolyte-rich fluids (ORS, coconut water)
