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'm really worried about my son because he's got a high viral fever that goes between 101 and 104. We're already doing sponging when his fever hits 103 and following the medicine schedule our pediatrician suggested, which seems to help lower the fever a bit. But someone mentioned it might be a good idea to keep him in an air-conditioned room with the temperature set to around 24-25 degrees. Do you think it's safe or advisable to use the AC when he's dealing with a viral fever?

I'm really worried about my 6-year-old. He's been having these persistent hiccups for the past three days now. We took him to our regular doctor who didn't find anything wrong, but they just won't stop. He's still really energetic, playing, and eating just fine, but I'm starting to get concerned. Any idea what might be causing this or what we should do next?
Frequent hiccups in children are usually harmless, especially if your son is active and eating well. Persistent hiccups over three days, though, might need further evaluation to rule out irritants like acid reflux or other rare causes. Its worth consulting a pediatrician for a second opinion.

I'm really worried because my 2-year-old just ate some of the slime from a toy called Barrel-o-Slime. Could this be harmful or cause any issues? What should I do?
If your 2-year-old ingested a small amount of Barrel-O-Slime, they might experience mild symptoms like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, but severe complications are unlikely; however, monitor your child closely and seek immediate medical attention if you notice any of the following: difficulty breathing, severe vomiting, abdominal pain, or lethargy.
