I'm a bit worried about using thrombophob gel on my 18-month-old son. Is it safe to apply it on a cut? And also, would it be okay to use after he's had a vaccine? How should I go about applying it if it's fine to use?

I'm really worried about my 4-year-old daughter. Her latest urine test showed pus cells at 25-30 and epithelial cells at 34. About a year and a half ago, she had a mild urinary tract infection. How serious is her current situation? Should I be concerned about these numbers?

I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old baby. They're having a bowel movement after every single feeding, like 6 times or even more in a day. It's usually within an hour after they eat. We did a stool test, and everything came back normal, but my baby just isn't gaining weight. What could be happening, and how can we help them?

Hi there, I understand your concern. Frequent stools after each feed can sometimes be a sign of digestive sensitivity or a mild intolerance, but since the stool test is normal, it's good to rule out infections. I recommend closely monitoring the baby's feeding patterns and discussing with your pediatrician about possible adjustments to the feeding routine or exploring other underlying causes for the weight concerns.
