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?

I'm wondering about my baby's mundan ceremony. He's 4 months old right now. Is it okay to do the ceremony when he's 5 months, or should we wait longer for his head scalp to become harder? What do you recommend?

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.
