Question

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?

Question

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?
