Question

I'm really curious and a bit worried about my 30-day-old baby's skin. When he was born, his complexion was quite fair, but over time, it seems to have gotten darker. I'm using Tedibar soap for him. Could the change in skin tone be related to the summer heat, or is there something else I should consider?

The darkening of your baby's skin tone is likely due to natural melanin production and adaptation to the environment, rather than the soap or summer heat; continue using gentle, fragrance-free soap like Tedibar, and consider consulting your pediatrician to rule out any underlying conditions, but in most cases, this change is harmless and may stabilize over time

Question

I'm really worried about my 24-day-old baby girl who cries a lot at night. We initially thought it was gas since that's pretty common with newborns, so we've been giving her Crosin drops as suggested by our paediatrician. I'm wondering if it's safe to keep giving her 4 drops daily? Are there any other medicines you would recommend? She seems to be doing well otherwise - she sleeps and eats well, with no fever or unusual symptoms. We feed her every 2.5 hours and her bowel movements are normal. Any advice on why she might be crying so much?

Question

I'm a bit worried about something and could really use your advice. My baby is 4 months old, and I'm breastfeeding her. I've eaten a lot of sweets lately and I'm concerned it might cause worms in my stomach. Can I take a Bendex tablet while breastfeeding?

Question

I'm dealing with mouth, hand, and feet disease right now. My hands are slowly getting better, but the pain in my mouth is getting worse. I've developed a canker sore that's really painful. I can't eat anything because of it. What medication can I take to help relieve the pain and heal my mouth?
