Question 1

My baby girl just turned 4 months old and started her 5th month. Our pediatrician suggested we start her on solids. I'm wondering what the best solids are to begin with at this age. I've already made some ragi malt and boiled rice kanji at home. What's the best way to prepare kanji for my baby? Is it okay to add formula or expressed breast milk to it? If I introduce solid food once a day, how many milk feeds should she still have? What other solids would be suitable for her age? I'm also curious about the best way to feed her ragi kanji. She really doesn't like palada. Would using a bottle, cup and spoon, or sipper be better for her? I'd appreciate some guidance.

Question 2

I've just had wax removed from my five-year-old's ear yesterday, but now he's suddenly experiencing pain in one ear and can't sleep. I'm looking for any immediate solutions that might help him get some rest tonight. I'll be taking him to the doctor tomorrow, but what can I do for him right now?

Question 3

I'm really worried about my 6-month-old son. It's been raining a lot, and he ended up with a cold. We didn't clean his ears properly, and we also kept a cap on him, which I think might have led to some pus in his ears. The pediatrician gave us Clavam Bid drops, and we're giving him 2.5 ml three times a day for a week. But now, on the second day of taking it, he's experiencing loose motions after drinking breast milk, and we're not feeding him any solids. What should we do?

Accepted Answer

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm wondering if it's alright to combine Duolin 2ml and Budecort 3ml for a single nebulization session, or should I do them in separate rounds?

You can mix Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) in one nebulization session, as they are commonly used together for combined bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects. Just ensure you follow your doctor's instructions and the prescribed dosage for your condition.
