I'm really worried about my little one's weight. He's 2 years and 3 months old, but only weighs 10 kg, which seems really low. He doesnt show much interest in eating and doesnt have much of an appetite. Can you suggest a healthy daily menu or any tips to help him gain some weight?

Question

I'm a teenager and I'm really curious about whether masturbation affects my height growth. Also, is there a limit on how often I should do it in a week?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my baby's vaccination schedule. My little one is 10 months old and we got the MMR vaccine done last month. Now, with the government announcing another round of MMR vaccinations, should I take her for this one too? Is it necessary or are we covered with the one we've already done?

Question

My daughter's been running a fever of around 100F every month for the past few months, and it usually sticks around for about 12 days. The doctor has been recommending Combiflame each time, but this time they suggested a CRP test, and the results showed a CRP level of 65. Now she's on antibiotics for 4 days, and they advised another CRP test afterward. How serious is this for her, or is this kind of thing common in kids? We're really worried and could use some clarity.
