I'm feeling pretty worried because my 6-month-old baby accidentally got a piece of paper in his mouth. I managed to get some of it out, but I'm not sure if he swallowed the rest or if it's still in there. What should I do now? Is there a chance it could cause any harm or should I just keep an eye on him for any symptoms?

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.

View allI've just realized that I took some expired Augmentin, and I'm currently breastfeeding. I'm pretty worried and not sure what to do next. Should I continue feeding my baby, or could this be harmful to them in any way? Would love some advice on this.
This Widal test report suggests that you may have a typhoid infection. The elevated titers for S Typhi 'O' (1160) and S Typhi 'H' (1180) indicate exposure to Salmonella Typhi. The report also shows some reactivity to S Para Typhi 'AH' and 'BH', which may indicate a past or concurrent Paratyphoid infection. Consult a healthcare professional for interpretation and guidance.

I accidentally swallowed my tooth, and I'm really worried about what might happen. Could this harm my stomach? Should I get in touch with a doctor right away? Is there any chance this could be dangerous?
Don't worry, swallowing a tooth is generally harmless and rarely causes significant issues; the tooth will likely pass through your digestive system without being digested, and come out intact in your stool within a few days

I'm really worried about my son because he's got a high viral fever that goes between 101 and 104. We're already doing sponging when his fever hits 103 and following the medicine schedule our pediatrician suggested, which seems to help lower the fever a bit. But someone mentioned it might be a good idea to keep him in an air-conditioned room with the temperature set to around 24-25 degrees. Do you think it's safe or advisable to use the AC when he's dealing with a viral fever?
