I'm on the third day of having chickenpox and while some of the blisters are starting to dry, I've been getting a high fever every evening and feeling really weak. What should I do about this?

Question

I'm really worried about my 5-year-old. He's got these prominent bronchovascular markings, and his ESR is at 13. Is this serious? He's been coughing non-stop and always seems to have a fever. His recent blood test shows an absolute lymphocyte count of 5500 and a monocyte count of 9. We've been giving him normal flu medicines and using a nebulizer, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could it be some kind of allergy?

Question

I'm a breastfeeding mom with a 2-month-old baby, and I had a really bad migraine last night. I took Disprin and stopped breastfeeding for about 23 hours after that. I even expressed and discarded the milk I produced after taking the medication because I heard aspirin isn't recommended during breastfeeding. Is it safe for me to start breastfeeding again now?

Question

My 3-year-old, who weighs 13 kilos, has been experiencing vomiting and indigestion. I'm wondering what the right dosage of Emeset syrup would be for them. Could you guide me on this?
