I'm really worried because my two-year-old swallowed an apricot seed. Should I give him a banana or is there something else I should do? I'm not sure how to handle this.

Penile traction devices*: These are FDA-approved, non-surgical devices that may help increase penis length. However, results are generally modest (around 1-2 cm). 2. Penile exercises: Some exercises, like jelqing or penile stretching, may help improve blood flow and potentially lead to slight increases in penis length. However, these claims are largely anecdotal and not scientifically proven. 3. Surgical options: In some cases, surgical procedures like penile lengthening or enlargement may be considered. However, these procedures carry risks and are typically reserved for individuals with micropenis or significant penile trauma.

Important Reminders

  1. Be realistic: Understand that significant increases in penis length are unlikely.
  2. Prioritize overall health: Focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, balanced diet, and good mental well-being.
  3. Avoid unproven products: Steer clear of products or supplements claiming to dramatically increase penis length, as they are often ineffective and may be harmful.

I'm really worried about my 14-month-old daughter; she's not walking yet, just crawling, and her weight seems quite low at 7.2 kg. She was 2.8 kg at birth. I'm not breastfeeding anymore and I've been giving her cow's milk along with soft food three times a day. She eats well, but she's having stools 2 to 3 times daily. The doctor recommended Bevcon syrup for a month, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you suggest what else I should consider or if there's another syrup that might help?

I accidentally swallowed my tooth, and I'm really worried about what might happen. Could this harm my stomach? Should I get in touch with a doctor right away? Is there any chance this could be dangerous?

Don't worry, swallowing a tooth is generally harmless and rarely causes significant issues; the tooth will likely pass through your digestive system without being digested, and come out intact in your stool within a few days
