Question 1

My toddler just chewed on a Primoult tablet by accident. I cleaned his mouth as soon as I realized, but I'm really worried. If he happened to swallow a tiny bit, could it be harmful? Should I rush him to the hospital or keep an eye on him at home?

Normal Causes*

1. *Overproduction of cervical mucus*: Hormonal fluctuations can cause an increase in cervical mucus production, leading to clear watery discharge.
2. *Ovulation*: During ovulation, the body produces more estrogen, which can cause an increase in cervical mucus.
3. *Hydration*: Drinking plenty of water can cause an increase in cervical mucus production.

*Abnormal Causes*

1. *Yeast infection*: A yeast infection can cause a clear, watery discharge with an unpleasant odor.
2. *Bacterial vaginosis*: This bacterial infection can cause a thin, watery discharge with a strong odor.
3. *Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)*: Certain STIs, such as chlamydia or gonorrhea, can cause abnormal discharge.
4. *Hormonal imbalances*: Hormonal changes can cause an increase in cervical mucus production.

*Solution*

To address the issue:

1. *Practice good hygiene*: Wear breathable clothing, and avoid using scented soaps or douches.
2. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water to help flush out your system.
3. *Use panty liners*: Wear panty liners to absorb the discharge and reduce embarrassment.
4. *Consult a doctor*: If the discharge persists, is accompanied by other symptoms (e.g., itching, burning, or odor), or is causing discomfort, consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.

Question 2

I'm really worried about my daughter Aradhya. She's been getting a fever two or three times every month for the last couple of months. We've seen different pediatricians each time, but they always end up prescribing antibiotics and antipyretics. The meds usually help for a bit, but then a month or two later, the fever's back. Recently, one suggested Septilin syrup, saying her immune system might be weak. Even after ten days on it, she got a fever again. Im feeling stuck and unsure of what to do next. Any advice?

Accepted Answer

get her complete blood count and chest xray and see if it is normal, then continue the syrup

Question 3

My 2-month-old baby has two tiny skin tags on his left ear, each about the size of a pinhead. Can homeopathy help with this, or is surgery the only option? I'm a bit concerned about what's best for his little ear.

Please visit your pediatrician first for examination of your child

Minors ingesting minuscule paper pass them through stools. If the child has any sort of choking, gagging, fast breathing please make sure to go to the local paediatrician.
