I'm really worried because my 2-year-old just swallowed an apricot seed. I've heard from someone that giving him bananas and sabudana kheer might help. Is that true, and is there anything else I should be doing right now? What's the best way to handle this?

If your baby has swallowed an apricot seed, it's important to stay calm. Monitor for any signs of discomfort, choking, or difficulty breathing. Feeding bananas or sabudana kheer may help soften the stool, but if there are any concerns or signs of distress, please seek immediate medical attention.

View allMy kid is 4 years old and he's still not talking as much as I'd expect. I've been to the pediatrician, and he recommended two syrups called Forts B and Neotoserum. I've been giving them to my child for the past six months, and while I've noticed some improvement, he still isn't understanding everything and can't always reply properly. What else should I be doing?
Nipple Discharge: Normal or Abnormal? _Normal Reasons:_ 1. *Hormonal fluctuations*: Changes in estrogen and progesterone levels can cause nipple discharge. 2. *Stimulation or squeezing*: As you've experienced, squeezing or stimulating the nipples can cause a clear discharge. 3. *Pregnancy or breastfeeding*: Hormonal changes during pregnancy or breastfeeding can lead to nipple discharge. _Abnormal Reasons:_ 1. *Galactorrhea*: A hormonal imbalance can cause spontaneous nipple discharge, often accompanied by other symptoms like irregular periods or infertility. 2. *Prolactinoma*: A benign tumor in the pituitary gland can cause an overproduction of prolactin, leading to nipple discharge. 3. *Breast cancer or other tumors*: In rare cases, nipple discharge can be a symptom of breast cancer or other tumors.

My 3-month-old niece in the US was diagnosed with laryngomalacia and doctors recommended surgery, but I've read it might improve on its own over time. Should we wait or go ahead with the surgery?
Many infants with laryngomalacia are able to eat and grow normally, and the condition will resolve without surgery by the time they are around 20 months old. However, a small percentage of babies do struggle with breathing, eating, and weight gain, and their symptoms require immediate treatment.
