I'm dealing with mouth, hand, and feet disease right now. My hands are slowly getting better, but the pain in my mouth is getting worse. I've developed a canker sore that's really painful. I can't eat anything because of it. What medication can I take to help relieve the pain and heal my mouth?

For pain relief and managing mouth sores medications like chlorhexidine mouthwash, and pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, while also considering antiviral medications if the cause is viral. so consult md medicine

I'm giving my 18-month-old son Sinarest AF for his cold. I've been giving him 4ml three times a day for the past three days, and he seems to be getting better with it. I'm wondering if it's safe to continue using this medication in the future whenever he catches a cold. Is it okay to keep doing this?
Sinarest-AF is a combination medication that contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Chlorpheniramine. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms of cold and flu. In children, especially under 2 years old, the safety and efficacy of Phenylephrine and Chlorpheniramine are not well established. It is recommended to consult with a pediatrician before giving Sinarest-AF to children under 2 years old. For cold symptoms in children, it is important to focus on supportive care such as ensuring adequate rest, hydration, and a healthy diet. If your son has cold symptoms in the future, it is best to consult with a pediatrician for appropriate treatment options.

Im wondering how often I can give my baby Woodward's gripe water. My baby seems to have a lot of wind, and Im not sure if gripe water is the right thing to use for that. How many times a day would be safe? Also, Ive heard about Colicaid drops, but Im a bit confused about their difference from gripe water. When should I give Colicaid drops instead of gripe water?
Woodward's Gripe Water can be given to your baby up to 3-4 times a day, usually after meals or when your baby is feeling gassy. It helps relieve gas and bloating. Colicaid drops are specifically for relieving colic pain, given when your baby seems to have discomfort due to trapped gas or cramps. Gripe water is more for general wind relief. Always consult your pediatrician before giving any medication.
