I'm really worried about my baby's skin. He was born 25 days ago with fair and reddish skin, but now he's starting to get a little darker each day. My mom uses coconut oil on his face and body before his bath and then cleans him with gram powder instead of soap. Is there anything I can do to maintain his original skin color?

View allI'm really concerned about my 2-month-old son's condition. He's got white patches all over his mouth after drinking milk. I'm not sure if this is something normal or if I need to do something about it. Could you please advise on what might be going on and what steps I should take?
The white patches in your 2-month-old son's mouth, appearing after feeding, are likely thrush, a common fungal infection; consult your pediatrician for a proper diagnosis and guidance, and in the meantime, try to clean the patches gently with a soft cloth and water, and ensure proper sterilization of pacifiers and bottle nipples.

I'm worried because my 14-month-old daughter has had a cold and cough for the last month, and her doctor told us to use Duolin respules in a nebulizer for her. I've heard that this is usually for asthma and other conditions, so I'm not sure if it's the right treatment. Can you give me some advice on this?
The condition could be Bronchitis or Bronchiolitis that is the reason why your doctor prescribed respules,no harm in using tthose you can use them.

I'm a bit worried about my 10-year-old son. He has swelling, pain, and pus coming from his right ear. Last year, I was prescribed Candibiotic ear drops for my own ear infection, so I'm wondering if they're safe and effective to use for him as well. If not, could you suggest some other options for treating this kind of ear infection?
I would strongly advise against using Candibiotic eye drops for your son's ear infection. Eye drops are formulated specifically for the eyes, and using them in the ears can cause more harm than good.
