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?

I'm really worried about my 7-month-old baby. I was giving her enterogermina oral suspension, and some of the drops accidentally got into her eyes. We quickly washed her eyes with water, but I'm still concerned. Is that going to be okay, or could it cause any harm?

I'm wondering if it's okay to give my newborn 5 ml of Gastica drops once a day. I'm really hoping it might help with their digestion and gas issues. Is it safe and effective for little ones?

My child was born with penoscrotal hypospadias and delivered in a government hospital. The doctors recommended a two-stage surgery but I'm really worried since it's a complex procedure. Can you suggest a good private hospital in Chennai that specializes in hypospadias treatment and provides careful handling? I want to make sure my child gets the best care possible.
