Question

I'm really concerned because during a recent polio vaccination drive, my son was accidentally given 67 drops instead of the usual 2 drops of the oral polio vaccine. Hes already had multiple oral doses and the IPV. Could this cause any issues now or in the future? What should I look out for in terms of symptoms of an overdose?

Question

My daughter is 2 and a half years old and she's been dealing with a cold and cough since January. We saw a doctor who gave us some medicine, which helped with the cold but her cough hasn't gone away. She tends to cough especially at night while she's sleeping and again when she wakes up in the morning. We went back to the doctor and he mentioned that it might be early asthma symptoms and suggested we try LEVOLIN syrup for 5 days. He seemed optimistic and said asthma in kids can be cured with medicine. I'm really worried and curious about how common this is in young children and if there's anything specific I should watch for or do to help her. Does this seem like the right approach?

Question

I'm a bit worried. I've been using Eytex Kajal to put a bindi on my baby's forehead, and now there's a white spot appearing in that area. I also put a small kajal dot on her cheek, but there are no white spots there. Could you help me understand why this is happening and if there's any medication I can give my 5-month-old baby girl?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my 3-month-old baby. I've been feeding them both formula milk, specifically Lactogen, and breast milk since they were 2 months old. Everything seemed fine, but lately, I've noticed they've started having greenish stools for about a week now. I'm thinking about switching from Lactogen to Nan Pro. Is it safe to make this change? And why might their stools be green?
