View allHow do you bring down a fever?
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying infection or inflammation and it will come down only when the cause is treated. Cold water either in the form of drinking or tepid sponging helps in controlling core body temperature in fever.

My son accidentally drank some diluted Dettol a couple of days ago. I reacted quickly by brushing his teeth and making him drink a lot of water. Thankfully, he seems normal now and I haven't noticed any effects yet. Should I be worried about any side effects showing up later?
The oily substance you noticed could be due to: 1. *Excess sebum*: Anal glands produce sebum, which can mix with stool. 2. *Mucoid discharge*: The anus naturally produces mucus, which can appear oily. 3. *Dietary factors*: Consuming oily foods or supplements (e.g., fish oil) might contribute to the oily appearance. 4. *Gastrointestinal issues*: Certain conditions, such as malabsorption or pancreatitis, can cause oily stools. _When to be concerned_ 1. *Persistent or excessive oil*: If the issue persists or worsens. 2. *Other symptoms*: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, or blood in stool. 3. *Changes in stool color or consistency*: If stools become pale, greasy, or floating.

I'm trying to figure out the right Lactogen 1 mix for my 3-week-old. Is it alright to use 2 scoops with 50ml of water?
