I'm really worried because the fever is stuck at 102-103 Fahrenheit since this morning. We went to the hospital, and the general physician prescribed antibiotics and DOLO, but the fever just won't go down. Do you think he might need a different diagnosis?

Question

I'm concerned about my three-year-old son. I gave him this medicine called Macpod 50, and I'm noticing that his lips are getting bigger. Can you help me understand why this might be happening?

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?

I'm really worried about my little boy. He's 2 years and 6 months and has been having a rough time with a persistent cough. He recently got over a fever, which was a relief, but now I'm not sure which cough syrup would be best for him. Could you help me figure out what's suitable for his age?
