I'm worried about my 4-month-old baby's feet and hands. They're often wet and sweaty, especially when he's sleeping or feeding. It's more than what seems normal to us. Is this something to be concerned about, or is it normal for babies this age?

View allI'm a bit confused and worried about my baby's vaccination schedule. My little one is 10 months old and we got the MMR vaccine done last month. Now, with the government announcing another round of MMR vaccinations, should I take her for this one too? Is it necessary or are we covered with the one we've already done?
no need as she is already vaccinated

My little one has a stuffy nose and a bit of a cough. She's just 5 months old. I'm thinking of giving her mucolite and maxtra, both at the same time, but I'm not sure if that's okay. The dosage I've got is 0.6 ml. Is that alright for her age?
Yes you can give it no problem.

I'm pretty worried about my 7-year-old daughter. Her CRP level came back at 65 during a blood test, and that seems pretty high to me. The doctor gave her antibiotics for three days, but I'm anxious about how serious this is. Is this level of CRP dangerous, and what kind of effects can it have? The weird thing is there doesn't seem to be any inflammation in her body. Is this normal? Can it be taken care of easily? I'd really appreciate any advice you can give.
A CRP (C-Reactive Protein) level of 65 is elevated, indicating inflammation or infection. However, it's not necessarily dangerous, especially since your daughter doesn't have any visible inflammation. _What does an elevated CRP level mean?_ 1. Infection: Bacterial or viral infections can cause elevated CRP levels. 2. Inflammation: CRP levels can rise in response to inflammation, even if there's no visible inflammation. _Antibiotics and Treatment_ 1. The doctor's prescription of antibiotics for 3 days is a standard approach to treating potential bacterial infections. 2. Monitor your daughter's condition and CRP levels after completing the antibiotic course. _When to Worry_ 1. If your daughter's CRP levels remain elevated or increase despite treatment. 2. If she develops symptoms like fever, vomiting, or severe abdominal pain. 3. If she has a history of underlying medical conditions or weakened immunity. _Next Steps_ 1. Complete the antibiotic course as prescribed. 2. Schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to re-check CRP levels and assess your daughter's condition. 3. Keep an eye on your daughter's overall health and watch for any concerning symptoms.
