I'm trying to figure out how much milk my 2.7-year-old son should be drinking. He weighs 13.7 kg. Also, I'm curious if there are any specific health drinks you'd recommend and how often or how much he should have them. And by the way, is it alright to add a bit of sugar to things like idly or curd for him at this age?

View allI'm really worried about my 8-month-old baby. His nose is extremely blocked, and using Nasivion 0.01% hasn't helped at all. He's 9 kilograms. Is it okay if I switch to 0.025% instead? Could you also advise me on using a nebulizer, or if it would be helpful for him?

My son accidentally drank some diluted Dettol a couple of days ago. I reacted quickly by brushing his teeth and making him drink a lot of water. Thankfully, he seems normal now and I haven't noticed any effects yet. Should I be worried about any side effects showing up later?
The oily substance you noticed could be due to: 1. *Excess sebum*: Anal glands produce sebum, which can mix with stool. 2. *Mucoid discharge*: The anus naturally produces mucus, which can appear oily. 3. *Dietary factors*: Consuming oily foods or supplements (e.g., fish oil) might contribute to the oily appearance. 4. *Gastrointestinal issues*: Certain conditions, such as malabsorption or pancreatitis, can cause oily stools. _When to be concerned_ 1. *Persistent or excessive oil*: If the issue persists or worsens. 2. *Other symptoms*: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, or blood in stool. 3. *Changes in stool color or consistency*: If stools become pale, greasy, or floating.

I'm wondering how much Zincovit syrup I should be giving to my 20-month-old toddler who weighs 9.2 kg. Is there a specific dosage I should follow? I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure I'm doing this right.
For a 20-month-old baby weighing 9.2 kg, the typical dosage of Zincovit syrup is 5 ml once a day, unless otherwise directed by the pediatrician. Always consult with your doctor before administering any medication to ensure it's the right dosage for your baby's needs.
