I'm really worried about my 24-day-old baby girl who cries a lot at night. We initially thought it was gas since that's pretty common with newborns, so we've been giving her Crosin drops as suggested by our paediatrician. I'm wondering if it's safe to keep giving her 4 drops daily? Are there any other medicines you would recommend? She seems to be doing well otherwise - she sleeps and eats well, with no fever or unusual symptoms. We feed her every 2.5 hours and her bowel movements are normal. Any advice on why she might be crying so much?

I'm really worried because my 5-year-old has been having loose motions since yesterday. We have Econorm sachets at home, but I'm not sure about the right dosage for her. Could you advise me on how much I should give her?
You can give one sachet two times a day

I'm a bit concerned about my daughter who's 3.5 months old. She recently got the pentavac vaccination and I've noticed some swelling and a lump forming at the injection site. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it a common reaction?
After pentavac vaccination, it is common for infants to experience swelling and lump formation at the injection site. This is a normal reaction to the vaccine. You can give her a dose of acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) as per the recommended dosage for her age to help with any discomfort. If the swelling or lump persists or worsens, please consult with your pediatrician.
