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.

my 3-month-old baby boy has severe left-sided hydronephrosis due to PUJ obstruction and the doctor recommended surgery. I'm confused between open and laparoscopic surgery which one is better for my baby and can you suggest the best doctor in Mumbai for this procedure
In some cases of hydronephrosis in baby boys, surgery may be necessary to address blockages or correct structural abnormalities that are causing the condition. The most common surgical procedure for hydronephrosis is pyeloplasty, which repairs a narrowed or obstructed ureteropelvic junction (UPJ). Other surgical options may include ureteral reimplantation for vesicoureteral reflux or removal of obstructions like kidney stones or tumors

I'm really concerned about my 4-year-old son. I've noticed that some family members tend to give Brandy to kids, even those younger than him, when they have a cough or cold. I've seen the warning labels on Brandy bottles, so I'm a bit confused and worried. Is it really okay to give Brandy to a kid for a cough or cold? What could be the negative effects, if any, on a child?
Brandy is not recommended for children, especially at such a young age. It can have harmful effects on their developing bodies. Instead, you can give your child over-the-counter medications like Children's Tylenol or Children's Motrin for relief from cough and cold symptoms. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage based on your child's weight and age.
