I've noticed that my nipples are getting swollen, and they're soft to the touch. When I press them, they return to normal for a bit, but then they swell up again after a few minutes. I'm 16, and I'm wondering if this is just a part of puberty or something I should be concerned about. Also, I've felt small clots behind both nipples, but there's no pain. Is this normal?

My son is 4 years old and he's been having this cough with mucus for a while. Every time he coughs, I can feel and hear the mucus in his lungs, but it just won't come out. It's really worrying me. Our doctor suggested giving him Montair LC Kid syrup for four days, and mentioned that if things don't get better, we'd have to try nebulization. When I looked up Montair LC, it seemed to be more for allergies or asthma. Is it really safe to give him this syrup, and will it actually help with the mucus in his chest?

Yes ,continue same treatment.

My 16-month-old has had a cough for a week now and the pediatrician prescribed Protussa, but it hasn't helped much. She's been vomiting right after she coughs, especially after eating. What should I do next?

Pediatric opinion is advised to the patient.
