My baby son has been pooping 6-7 times a day but in small amounts. It was different a month ago when he would poop 2-3 times a day but in larger amounts. The poop is a bit greenish and semiliquid. He's showing no signs of discomfort unless he's hungry, hes active, and his sleep is good. Hes only breastfed, and he weighs about 8.2 kgs. Should I be worried about this change in his pooping pattern?

View allmy son had TB and just had intestine surgery should I get the whole family checked for TB too
Yes, it's highly recommended to get the whole family tested for TB. Since your son had intestinal TB, which is usually not contagious, it's still a good idea to get the family checked, especially if your son had active TB in the lungs or throat. People with active TB are most likely to spread it to close contacts, including family members. If your son had pulmonary or laryngeal TB, there's a higher risk of transmission to household members. If your son had abdominal TB, which is less likely to spread, testing family members is still a good precaution

I'm a bit concerned about this Zedex P syrup I got for my kid. It seems really thick and syrupyalmost too viscous. Could you give me a rundown on what it should look like physically?
Uncontrolled High Blood Pressure and Laboratory Results _Concerns and Recommendations_ 1. _Uncontrolled hypertension_: Despite taking Telmisartan 40mg, your blood pressure remains elevated (190110). This requires immediate attention to prevent cardiovascular complications. 2. _Kidney function_: Your creatinine level (1.8) is slightly elevated, indicating potential kidney impairment. The high potassium level in your urine and proteinuria (2484) also suggest kidney damage. 3. _Albumin levels_: Your albumin level (3.3) is within the normal range, which is a positive sign. 4. _Vitamin B12 deficiency_: Your vitamin B12 level (82) is below the normal range (200-900 pgmL), which may contribute to fatigue, weakness, and neurological symptoms. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a cardiologist or nephrologist_: Schedule an appointment with a specialist to reassess your hypertension management and kidney function. 2. _Adjust medication regimen_: Your doctor may consider adding or adjusting medications to better control your blood pressure and protect your kidneys. 3. _Lifestyle modifications_: Implement lifestyle changes, such as: - Reducing sodium intake - Increasing potassium-rich foods - Engaging in regular physical activity - Maintaining a healthy weight - Getting adequate sleep 4. _Vitamin B12 supplementation_: Discuss vitamin B12 supplementation with your doctor to address the deficiency.

How do you bring down a fever?
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying infection or inflammation and it will come down only when the cause is treated. Cold water either in the form of drinking or tepid sponging helps in controlling core body temperature in fever.
