I'm a first-time mom, and my baby is now 14 days old. For the past week, she's been crying for almost three hours every night and sometimes during the day too. We tried giving her colic medicine for four days, but she keeps crying. With this Covid situation, it's really hard to visit a hospital. Is this something normal?

I'm really worried because my son seems to have a bed wetting issue. He tells me he doesn't even realize when it happens during sleep. I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you help?

I'm a teenager and I'm really curious about whether masturbation affects my height growth. Also, is there a limit on how often I should do it in a week?

Masturbation does not affect height or growth during teenage years; it's a normal part of development. You can masturbate as often as you feel comfortable, but overdoing it might affect your focus on studies or daily activities, so moderation is key.

I'm trying to figure out which deworming medication is better for my 5-year-old, Bandy or Bandy Plus. Can you explain the difference between the two? I'm a bit worried about which one is the right choice for my kid.

For a 5-year-old, **Bandy** is generally preferred for deworming, as it contains the standard dosage for children. **Bandy Plus** has additional ingredients that may be used for broader treatment, but it's best to consult a pediatrician for the right choice based on the child's specific needs. Always follow the doctor's recommendation for the safest and most effective option.
