I'm really worried because my baby, who's just 1 month and 18 days old, accidentally got a little cut on the finger while I was trimming nails. What should I do to help the wound heal? Do you think a TT injection is necessary?

I'm really concerned about my little one who's almost 1 and a half years old. He's still breastfeeding, but my wife isn't doing well health-wise. She's struggling with depression and is really weak, so she can't keep breastfeeding. We've tried giving our kid food and fruits, but he still cries a lot for his mother's milk and doesn't like drinking regular milk. Could you please give us advice on how to wean him off breastfeeding?

Can I use a cream with salicylic acid in the morning and a cleanser with salicylic acid at night? Would it be too much for my skin? I'm really curious if combining them might irritate my skin or if it's safe to do both. What do you think?

it would cause mild burns or rashes so try to include it slowly to your skincare starting with facewash
