I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old son. He's had these carry bags, or puffiness, under his eyes since he was born. We went to a local clinic today, and the doctor mentioned a few possible issues that have me worried. He said it could be related to his kidneys, allergies, or that his growth isn't quite right. Can you help me understand what might be going on here and what steps we should take next?

For delayed periods, weight gain, acne, and hair fall, consider Ayurvedic treatments like:

Shatavari or Ashoka for hormonal balance

Triphala for digestive health and weight management

Neem or Turmeric for acne and skin issues

Bhringaraj or Amla for hair fall

Consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance. Homeopathic remedies like Pulsatilla or Sepia may also be helpful, but consult a homeopathic doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I'm really worried about my 2 and a half-year-old son. He has a cold with a runny nose and sneezing, and he also occasionally gets a fever. Our pediatrician suggested Mucolite Alex Junior for the cold and cough, but it hasn't really helped. We then went to an ENT specialist who said he might have allergies and soft tissue issues, and she recommended Sinarest, Levolin, Gudcef, and Montek LC. I'm feeling really confused about these different medications and what's actually wrong. Could you help me understand what's going on and whether were on the right track with his treatment?

No need to worry and I suggest you to follow ENT doctors advice and give your child warm foods and feed him often

I'm really worried about my little boy. He's 2 years and 6 months and has been having a rough time with a persistent cough. He recently got over a fever, which was a relief, but now I'm not sure which cough syrup would be best for him. Could you help me figure out what's suitable for his age?

For your son's cough, you can consider giving him syrup brands like Benadryl, Tixylix, or Ascoril.
