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?

Consult your doctor before taking any medication during pregnancy. Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is generally considered safe during pregnancy, but only under medical guidance. Recommended dosage: 25-50 mg every 4-6 hours, not exceeding 300 mg in 24 hours. Alternative allergy medications during pregnancy: Loratadine (Claritin) Cetirizine (Zyrtec) Always prioritize consulting your healthcare provider before taking any medication.

My 6 months old son has been advised by his Pediatrician for TongueTied surgery. I wanted to understand that whether this is done by Surgeons or Pediatricians also can conduct this. How long is the surgical procedure and cost of it.
Tongue-tie surgery, or frenotomy/frenuloplasty, can be performed by both surgeons and pediatricians. The procedure is typically quick, lasting only a few minutes, and can be done in a doctor's office. The cost of the procedure can vary depending on the location and the chosen method, but in India, it typically ranges from 5,000 to 25,000 INR.

Can I use a cream with salicylic acid in the morning and a cleanser with salicylic acid at night? Would it be too much for my skin? I'm really curious if combining them might irritate my skin or if it's safe to do both. What do you think?
it would cause mild burns or rashes so try to include it slowly to your skincare starting with facewash
