Question 1

My 5-month-old baby is having really bad loose motions, probably because of the antibiotics Advent that he's taking for ear pain. I'm giving him Enterogermina, but he's still having loose stools about 7 to 8 times a day. I'm really worried since he's so little, and the antibiotic course is still going on. What should I do to help him?

Accepted Answer

Fever for 4 days can be concerning.

_Parasitamol (Acetaminophen)_

1. _Temporarily relieves fever_: Parasitamol can help reduce fever, but it doesn't address the underlying cause.
2. _Not a cure-all_: While parasitamol can provide temporary relief, it's essential to identify and treat the underlying cause of your fever.

_Consult a Doctor_

1. _Prolonged fever_: Fever lasting more than 3-4 days requires medical attention.
2. _Underlying cause_: A doctor can help determine the cause of your fever, which could be a viral or bacterial infection, or another underlying condition.
3. _Cough and other symptoms_: Although your cough is rare, it's still important to mention it to your doctor, as it could be related to your fever.

_Please consult a doctor to_:

1. Determine the underlying cause of your fever.
2. Receive proper treatment and guidance.
3. Rule out any complications or underlying conditions.

Question 2

I'm really worried about my 5 and a half month old son. Every morning he starts coughing and his doctor recommended using asthalin in a nebulizer three times a day. Last month, we even had to admit him to the hospital because of breathing issues related to his cough, and they treated him with a nebulizer there too. Can you help me understand what's actually going on with my baby? And is asthalin the right choice for him?

Accepted Answer

It seems like your baby may be experiencing recurrent respiratory issues, possibly asthma or a similar condition that affects the airways, causing cough and breathing difficulty. Asthalin in a nebulizer can help relax the muscles in the airways, easing his breathing, but it's important to monitor his response and follow up regularly with your doctor for any adjustments in treatment.
