My 10-year-old daughter had a fever, which thankfully went away after she took cefprozil, Alex PBifilac, and Pritexylls junior. However, she's still dealing with a really annoying dry cough, especially at night, which is making it hard for her to sleep well. We started giving her Kasnajiva and SeptilinhIMALAYA yesterday, but the cough hasn't improved much. Do you have any suggestions on what we should do next or if there's something else we could try? I'm really worried about her lack of sleep.

Can kids eat apples when they have a cold and cough? I'm really curious about which fruits are safe and beneficial for them right now. Could you also suggest the best diet or foods to include during a cold and cough for kids? I just want to make sure I'm doing the best for their health.

Yes, kids can eat apples during a cold and cough as they are easy to digest and contain vitamin C, which can help boost immunity. For a soothing diet, offer soft fruits like bananas, oranges, and pears, along with warm soups, broths, and plenty of fluids like water and herbal teas to stay hydrated and relieve congestion.

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 really worried because my 2-year-old just ate some of the slime from a toy called Barrel-o-Slime. Could this be harmful or cause any issues? What should I do?

If your 2-year-old ingested a small amount of Barrel-O-Slime, they might experience mild symptoms like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, but severe complications are unlikely; however, monitor your child closely and seek immediate medical attention if you notice any of the following: difficulty breathing, severe vomiting, abdominal pain, or lethargy.
