Question

My 6-year-old son has been dealing with allergic bronchitis and it seems like he gets it frequently. He had a little bit of cold curd yesterday and now he's started coughing. I've been using a nebulizer for him and I remember his doctor once mentioned that it's okay to nebulize him every half hour if things get severe. I'm just worried though, is it really safe to do that or are there potential side effects I should be aware of? His father's side of the family does have a history of asthma.

I'm really worried because my 2-year-old just swallowed an apricot seed. I've heard from someone that giving him bananas and sabudana kheer might help. Is that true, and is there anything else I should be doing right now? What's the best way to handle this?

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

I'm currently breastfeeding and I've got this persistent wet cough. I'm wondering if it's safe to take Ascoril LS syrup. Are there any side effects I should be worried about?
