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.

I'm really worried about my 3.5-month-old baby boy. For the past couple of days, his urine has been white, and the analysis shows there's a large amount of amorphous phosphate present. Do you know what might be causing this? Will it gradually get better on its own, or is there something I should be doing about it?
