I'm worried because my 7-year-old has been dealing with asthma, and we've been using Foracort 200 mg and Montek LC for their treatment. I'm wondering if there are any other medication options we could consider. Can these medicines be changed or adjusted for a child of this age? I'm really hoping to find the best solution to help manage the asthma symptoms better.

I'm concerned about my 4-month-old baby boy who's currently 8.2 kgs and is breastfed. Is his weight within a healthy range for his age? Could you give me some tips on how to make sure he maintains a good weight?

In conclusion, your babys weight seems fine, and as long as you continue exclusive breastfeeding and follow your pediatrician's advice, your baby will likely continue to grow healthy and strong. Always consult your pediatrician during check-ups for personalized advice.

So, I've been dealing with this fever situation where it's been recurring every 4 weeks. In the first and second weeks, the fever was really high, like between 104.1 and 104.5. We were advised to use Calpol by the doctor. And now, in the 4th week, the fever is back again. I'm really concerned about this pattern. Do you have any thoughts on what might be causing this or what steps we should take next?

My 2-year-old has been having a fever for the past 4 days. We went to the doctor, and he prescribed noble plus and zifi 50, but for the last couple of nights, I've noticed his head gets really hot while the rest of his body stays cold. What could this mean?

Your child may be experiencing fever spikes, where the temperature rises significantly in certain parts of the body. This can sometimes happen during the course of an infection. The medications prescribed by the doctor are noble plus (Paracetamol) for fever and zifi 50 (Cefixime) as an antibiotic. Make sure to give the medications as per the prescribed dosage and frequency. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
