I'm really concerned about my 5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a cold and cough for the past three days. We've been giving him escrodil syrup and ambrodil, but he's still not feeling better. What else can we try to help him feel better?

I'm a bit worried because my baby was born at 34 weeks and he's now 2 months and 18 days old, but he's not quite recognizing us, especially his mom. He's just started seeing some objects, but not very clearly. When can we expect him to start seeing us properly and responding with a smile?

No need to worry it takes time, usually from 3 to 4 months baby starts recognising people, have a regular followup with your doctor

My child was born with penoscrotal hypospadias and delivered in a government hospital. The doctors recommended a two-stage surgery but I'm really worried since it's a complex procedure. Can you suggest a good private hospital in Chennai that specializes in hypospadias treatment and provides careful handling? I want to make sure my child gets the best care possible.
