I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old baby. He's been vomiting since morning and hasn't eaten anything all day. He keeps crying, and it's breaking my heart. I'm not sure what could be wrong. Yesterday, we took him to the mall, and he tried a spoonful of halwa. This morning, he had some egg and roti with milk. Now, he's vomited at least 34 times; it's all watery. Today's Sunday, and all the local doctors are closed. Any idea what could be causing this or what I should do?

View allmy baby has a tongue tie and I'm worried about breastfeeding issues. Is there a quick surgery option that heals in 10 days or any medicine to help with this? I've heard some kids recover fast after treatment but not sure what options are out there
A quick frenectomy (surgical release of the tongue tie) is a minor procedure that can be done in a few minutes and heals within 7-10 days. Consult a pediatric dentist or pediatric ENT specialist.

I'm a bit anxious about my baby boy who's almost 4 months old. He's been having frequent small bowel movements, and I've been giving him Bifilac sachets to help. Is it okay to keep using Bifilac regularly? Is it safe for him?
While Bifilac is generally considered safe for infants, long-term or repeated use without medical supervision can lead to an imbalance of gut flora or dependency on probiotics; consult your pediatrician before continuing Bifilac sachets, as they may recommend alternative probiotics, dietary changes, or investigate underlying causes of frequent small motions

I'm really worried because my 7-year-old's platelet count just dropped from 172,000 to 130,000 in just a day, and on top of that, their WBC count shot up from 6,400 to 25,000. They're dealing with Dengue right now. Could this be risky? What's the threshold for platelet levels to become dangerous? What should we do?
This rapid change in blood counts indicates a worsening condition. In Dengue fever, a platelet count below 20000 is considered dangerous and requires immediate medical attention. I recommend immediate hospitalization for close monitoring and management. The child may require intravenous fluids, platelet transfusion, and other supportive care as deemed necessary by the healthcare provider. It is important to closely monitor the child's condition and follow the healthcare provider's recommendations for further treatment.
