My 6 months old son has been advised by his Pediatrician for TongueTied surgery. I wanted to understand that whether this is done by Surgeons or Pediatricians also can conduct this. How long is the surgical procedure and cost of it.

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Tongue-tie surgery, or frenotomy/frenuloplasty, can be performed by both surgeons and pediatricians. The procedure is typically quick, lasting only a few minutes, and can be done in a doctor's office. The cost of the procedure can vary depending on the location and the chosen method, but in India, it typically ranges from 5,000 to 25,000 INR.

My child has been having a cough for about three weeks now. We were advised to use monocef and phensedyl, but a week ago, she caught a cold and we switched to using moxikind. Now she's got both cold and cough again. Can we use moxikind for her cold while still giving her monocef and phensedyl for the cough? I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure we're doing the right thing.

I'm really worried about my 4-year-old daughter's ear pain. We already saw a doctor, and they gave us some drops to put in her ear, mentioning there was an infection or fungus. I followed the instructions, but she's still complaining of pain. Could you let me know why this might be happening? Is there anything else I should try or be looking out for?

Can you get chicken pox twice?

Most people who have had chicken pox once will be immune to the disease for lifetime but reinfection may happen in persons with suppressed immunity. Also, the virus may remain inactive in the nerves and may reactivate anytime later in life.
