My daughter had her 6-week vaccinations on March 8th, and since then, she's had a lump on her thigh. The doctor suggested using hot water treatment, but there's still a small lump there. Could you give me some advice on what else I should do or if this is normal?

Is it normal to get a lump after an injection? Getting a lump under your skin is a normal and expected injection site reaction. The lump may be painful or tender. As with other symptoms related to injection site reactions, get medical attention if your symptoms last longer than 1 to 2 days or get worse.

I'm really worried about my 10-month-old baby girl. She had a high fever and a febrile seizure, so we had an MRI, EEG, and ultrasound done, but thankfully all the reports came back normal. We're giving her Taxim O, 3 ml, as an antibiotic. I'm concerned about giving antibiotics frequently and if there are any side effects we should watch for. Also, I've noticed she's passing urine more often than usual. Is that something to be alarmed about, or could it be normal? If you have any other advice, Id really appreciate it.

My 6-year-old started vomiting this morning right after drinking water, and now he's not able to eat much. By this afternoon, he's also complaining about stomach pain. I'm really worried. What could be causing this, and what should I do to help him feel better?

I recommend giving him syrup Ondansetron for vomiting, syrup Domperidone for stomach pain, and syrup Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid. These medications are commonly available in India and can help alleviate his symptoms.

I'm really worried about why it's not improving. What should I do next? Is there anything else I should try or look out for? I just want to make sure he's okay.
