I'm really worried about my 4-year-old daughter's ear pain. We already saw a doctor, and they gave us some drops to put in her ear, mentioning there was an infection or fungus. I followed the instructions, but she's still complaining of pain. Could you let me know why this might be happening? Is there anything else I should try or be looking out for?

View allHow do you bring down a fever?
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying infection or inflammation and it will come down only when the cause is treated. Cold water either in the form of drinking or tepid sponging helps in controlling core body temperature in fever.

I'm worried because my 1.5-month-old baby cries a lot in the morning and afternoon, turning red. Is it okay to start giving her gripe water? I've been told to stick to only breastfeeding, and I'm really concerned about what's going on.
Feces-Smelling Breath (Halitosis) Management _Underlying Causes_ 1. *GERD*: Gastroesophageal reflux disease can cause stomach acid to flow up into the throat, leading to bad breath. 2. *Postnasal drip*: Excess mucus production can contribute to bad breath. 3. *Aching root canal molar*: Infected or inflamed teeth can cause bad breath. 4. *Other possible causes*: Sinus infections, tonsillitis, or other oral health issues. _Recommended Steps_ 1. *Dental evaluation*: Schedule an appointment with your dentist to assess the root canal molar and overall oral health. 2. *GERD management*: Work with your doctor to manage GERD symptoms, such as through lifestyle changes, medication, or surgery. 3. *Postnasal drip treatment*: Use saline nasal sprays, humidifiers, or consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for further guidance. 4. *Oral hygiene*: Continue good oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and tongue scraping. 5. *Consult a specialist*: If bad breath persists, consider consulting a halitosis specialist or an ENT specialist for further evaluation and guidance. _Temporary Relief Measures_ 1. *Sugar-free gum or lozenges*: Stimulate saliva production to help neutralize acids and wash away bacteria. 2. *Mouthwashes*: Use antibacterial mouthwashes to help reduce bacteria and freshen breath. 3. *Water and hydration*: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and help rinse away bacteria.
