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?

I'm worried about my 11-month-old baby who weighs 9kg and has vomited twice. How much Calpol suspension should I give her? Is there any specific dosage I need to follow?
For an 11-month-old baby weighing 9kg, the recommended dosage of Calpol Suspension (containing paracetamol) is: - 2.5-5 mL (60-120 mg) every 4-6 hours, as needed. However, since your baby has vomited twice, consider the following: - Consult your pediatrician before administering Calpol Suspension. - Start with a small dose (2.5 mL or 60 mg) to check for tolerance. - Monitor your baby's temperature and vomiting. - If vomiting persists or worsens, seek medical attention.

I'm really worried about my 4-year-old. They've had a cold and cough for three days now and are even throwing up. We've already given them an antibiotic and some cough syrup, but I'm not sure if that's enough or if we're doing the right thing. Could it be something more serious or should we try something else?
Lox 2% jelly, containing lidocaine, can provide temporary numbing relief for painful intercourse due to lack of lubrication. However, it's essential to use it with caution: *Safety Precautions* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Before using Lox 2% jelly, consult your doctor, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions or allergies. 2. *Use as directed*: Follow the instructions carefully, and apply the jelly only to the affected area. 3. *Avoid excessive use*: Don't use more than the recommended amount, as this can lead to prolonged numbness or other adverse effects. *Alternative Solutions* 1. *Water-based lubricants*: Consider using water-based lubricants, like K-Y Jelly or Astroglide, which can help reduce friction and discomfort during intercourse. 2. *Hormonal treatments*: If you're experiencing vaginal dryness due to hormonal changes, your doctor may recommend hormonal treatments, such as estrogen creams or supplements. *Addressing Underlying Issues* 1. *Gynecological check-up*: Schedule a check-up with your gynecologist to rule out any underlying conditions that may be contributing to your discomfort. 2. *Open communication*: Discuss your concerns with your partner, and explore ways to make intercourse more comfortable and enjoyable for you.
