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?

My little girl is 2 and almost 11 months and just a couple of days ago, she came down with a fever. We got a urine routine test done and the results mentioned that ketones were present at 50.0 mgdl and pus cells are at 10-15 WBCHPF. I'm really worried about the ketones; are they something dangerous? What should I be aware of or do next?

Pre-Pregnancy Concerns and Symptoms _Pregnancy Possibility_ 1. _Low risk, but possible_: While the risk of pregnancy from non-penetrative sexual activity is low, it's not impossible, especially if there was pre-ejaculation or ejaculation near the vaginal opening. 2. _Pre-ejaculation fluid can contain sperm_: Pre-ejaculation fluid can contain sperm, which can potentially fertilize an egg. _Symptoms and Early Signs of Pregnancy_ 1. _Common symptoms_: Burps (gas), constipation, nipple pain, and pimple formation can be early signs of pregnancy, but they can also be caused by other factors, such as hormonal changes, stress, or digestive issues. 2. _Not conclusive evidence_: These symptoms alone do not confirm pregnancy. _Next Steps_ 1. _Take a pregnancy test_: Wait until after your expected period (around 4-5 days after your missed period) and take a home pregnancy test (HPT) or visit a healthcare provider for a blood test. 2. _Consult a healthcare provider_: If you're concerned about pregnancy or experiencing symptoms, consult a healthcare provider for guidance and support.

My 2-year-old daughter has a fever of 103, and we've tried giving her continuous sponge baths, but it's not coming down. We also gave her 4 ml of Meftal P suspension, but then she vomited an hour later. Should I give her another dose, and when is it safe to give her paracetamol P250 again?

Since fever has just started and she has vomited just once it is best to wait and watch. You can give crocin at 6 hour interval if temperature is above 100F. Also give plenty of fluids such as ORS to avoid dehydration. If however such high fever recurs or vomiting continues or there are any other symptoms you must consult a doctor for physical examination to exclude dehydration or serious causes of fever.
