I've been smoking for about four months now and I'm just 16. I'm really worried if this might have stunted my growth or if there's something I can do to recover from it. Can smoking actually affect my height at this age?

View allI'm really worried about my 7-month-old baby. I was giving her enterogermina oral suspension, and some of the drops accidentally got into her eyes. We quickly washed her eyes with water, but I'm still concerned. Is that going to be okay, or could it cause any harm?

I'm really curious about the pcv and rv vaccines for my 1.5-month-old baby. Are these vaccines essential at this age? I'm feeling a bit anxious, so any advice would be appreciated.
For a 1.5-month-old baby, the PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) and RV (Rotavirus Vaccine) are indeed recommended vaccinations. - PCV Vaccine Schedule: Typically administered in two primary doses at 6 weeks and 14 weeks, followed by a booster dose at 9-12 months of age. - RV Vaccine Schedule: Usually given in three doses at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks. It's essential to consult your pediatrician for personalized advice and to ensure your baby receives the necessary vaccinations on time.

My child has been diagnosed with childhood asthma and it's really worrying me. He wheezes constantly and the treatment doesn't seem to be helping. It seems to get worse in the evenings, but the wheeze is always there no matter what. I use a nebuliser with Asthavent but it doesn't seem to ease the wheezing at all. The strange thing is, when he lies down, the wheezing disappears. He's even been hospitalized for respiratory distress before. What can I do or try next? I'm really concerned about his condition.
complete evaluation for the cause is required usualy that could be allergic identify the allergen and avoid it thats the main stay.
