I'm trying to figure out which medicine we should use for nebulization for my 7-year-old who's dealing with a cold and cough. We've been trying steam, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. Any advice on what might be more effective?

My child was born with penoscrotal hypospadias and delivered in a government hospital. The doctors recommended a two-stage surgery but I'm really worried since it's a complex procedure. Can you suggest a good private hospital in Chennai that specializes in hypospadias treatment and provides careful handling? I want to make sure my child gets the best care possible.

My 4.5-year-old daughter has adenoid issues and is currently on medication. I'm really worried about surgery are there any effective non-surgical treatments we can try? Her symptoms are bothering her, and I'd love to explore other options before considering surgery. What would you recommend?
Adenoidectomy is a safe procedure in the pediatric population and leads to excellent outcomes. Adverse events are rare, and hospitalization is uncommon. Children with sleep disturbance from nasal airway obstruction, ear disease, or chronic rhinosinusitis are the best operative candidates for this procedure.
