I'm really worried about my 2-month-old son who's been on formula milk since birth. He recently got pneumonia and was hospitalized. Sometimes, I hear crackling sounds when he breathes, and I'm concerned there might be fluid in his lungs. Could it be a lung abscess? He's generally playful and feeds well, but sometimes he breathes fast after feeding. His chest seems fine most of the time, so I'm confused. Is lung abscess something that develops after chest congestion, or can it happen without any obvious congestion?

I'm really concerned about my son. He's always been a very active child, but I'm worried because he started saying a few words at 11 months and then stopped. Now he's 2.6 years old and still isn't speaking. My husband and I both work, so he's usually alone at home. We saw a pediatrician when he was 20 months, and they said we should talk to him more, but it's hard to tell if this is a speech delay or something else. Could you please provide some advice on what we should do next?
Talk more to him, encourage reading, singing, and social interaction. Check his hearing and consider speech therapy if progress doesn't happen. Be patient and consistent with these practices, but don't hesitate to seek professional guidance if you're still concerned.

I'm really worried about my 9-year-old daughter. She fell down the stairs and hurt her back. It's swollen about 3 cm above the base of her spine, and she's complaining about pain in her knees, even though she didn't hit them. She also feels pain in her back when she lifts small things like her iPad. We've been using an ice pack on the swollen area, and she's lying on her belly right now. She can still walk and sit, but her back is very painful. The swelling is starting to go down a bit. I'm worried and not sure what to do next or what to watch out for. Could this lead to something serious? What should I be looking out for?
Visit your nearest hospital immediately and get xray spine done to look for any fracture and follow your doctors advice
