I'm a bit concerned about my 4-month-old baby. He's up to date with all his vaccinations up to his 16-week mark. Could you let me know which vaccines hell need once he hits 6 months?

Persistent meatus swelling with unusual coloration.
Given your treatment history and normal test results (urine routine & culture, ultrasound), consider the following possibilities:
- Chronic inflammation: Prolonged inflammation might be causing the swelling and discoloration.
- Vascular anomalies: Abnormal blood vessels could be contributing to the dark blue color.
- Meatus stenosis: Narrowing of the meatus might be causing swelling and discomfort.
Discuss the following with your surgeon:
- Biopsy: To rule out underlying conditions like cancer or granulomas.
- Doppler ultrasound: To evaluate blood flow and potential vascular anomalies.
- Alternative treatments: Consider options like corticosteroid injections or topical creams to reduce inflammation.
Seek a second opinion from a urologist if you're not satisfied with your current treatment progress.

View allI'm really worried because my 12-year-old daughter accidentally swallowed a date seed. I'm not sure if it will pass through her system safely or if we should consider any specific medication to help with digestion. Can you let me know if there's anything I should watch out for or any precautions we should take?
If your daughter has swallowed a date seed, it is likely to pass through her digestive system without causing any issues. However, it is important to monitor her for any signs of abdominal pain, difficulty swallowing, vomiting, or breathing difficulties. Make sure she stays hydrated and eats high-fiber foods to help the seed pass through her system. If she experiences any severe symptoms or if you are concerned, you can give her a mild laxative like Dulcolax to help move the seed through her system.

I'm not breastfeeding anymore and I've been giving her cow's milk along with soft food three times a day. She eats well, but she's having stools 2 to 3 times daily. The doctor recommended Bevcon syrup for a month, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you suggest what else I should consider or if there's another syrup that might help?
