Question

My 3-year-old son has been having loose, watery stools all day and it's making me worried. I've tried some home remedies, but they haven't worked much. He's also having stomach pain when he goes to the bathroom. Can you suggest any medicine for his diarrhea? He weighs about 10 kg.

Question

I'm a bit worried about how safe it is to use a nebulizer for my baby. The doctor recommended using Astalin with a small sachet-like bottle for 5 minutes, then stopping for 15 minutes before using it again for another 5 minutes, and repeating this process three times in one session, twice a day. I'm really concerned if this could be toxic for my baby's heart.

Question

I'm really worried because my 7-month-old baby's head feels really hot and he's been running a temperature of 100C for the last two days. It hasn't changed at all, and I'm not sure what I should do or if I should be more concerned. What could be causing this persistent fever, and should I be bringing him in to see someone?

Question

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?
