I'm really curious and a bit worried about my 30-day-old baby's skin. When he was born, his complexion was quite fair, but over time, it seems to have gotten darker. I'm using Tedibar soap for him. Could the change in skin tone be related to the summer heat, or is there something else I should consider?

The darkening of your baby's skin tone is likely due to natural melanin production and adaptation to the environment, rather than the soap or summer heat; continue using gentle, fragrance-free soap like Tedibar, and consider consulting your pediatrician to rule out any underlying conditions, but in most cases, this change is harmless and may stabilize over time

I'm really worried about my daughter. She had this issue a month ago, and after taking her medication, she got better. But now, for the past five days, she's facing the same problem again. We went to the doctor, and they prescribed her zagoozlomofen, hyocimax, and florazn. Could you tell me if this is the right treatment? I'm concerned because she doesn't seem completely better yet.

I'm wondering if it's okay to give my son a Limcee chewable tablet once a day since he often gets a cough. I've heard vitamin C helps with immunity. He's 7 years and 6 months old. Would this be safe and effective for him?

yes you can give for 1 week continously and then give once in a week for next 2 -3 months

My daughter's been dealing with cough, cold, and fever since yesterday morning, and her fever spikes up to 101 degrees. When we give her Dolo or Ibugesic syrup, the fever drops but comes back after about 6 hours. She also experiences chills before the fever returns. We've been giving her Timnic for the cold and Tycklix for the cough. Can you tell me how long it might take for her to stabilize? Should we be thinking about antibiotics now? Just last week, she had stomach issues and fever, and was on Rantac and Azee syrup for that. What should we do?

Considering the symptoms of persistent fever with chills, it is advisable to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation. Antibiotics may be considered if there are signs of a bacterial infection, such as prolonged fever or worsening symptoms. It is important to complete the course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor. In the meantime, continue with the current medications for cold and cough as directed. If the fever persists or worsens, seek medical attention promptly.
