My daughter has had a fever for the last five days, and we're really worried. We visited Rainbow, but it didn't seem to help much. Can you give some advice on what we should do next? Shes dealing with fever, a bad cold, and a cough. Were giving her medicine and doing sponge baths, which seem to help a bit, but at night her temperature still shoots up to 102. What else can we do?

I'm a bit worried about my 7-year-old son. I used to give him PEDIASURE, but he started putting on weight and lost his appetite after around three years, so I stopped. I've heard people say that all those drinks are similar, and he was having COMPLAN too, but I've stopped that as well. I'm just trying to figure out what's true and whether I should be adding anything to his milk or just keep it plain. If I should add something, what would be best for him?

I took petogen without realizing I shouldn't while breastfeeding. What should I do now? My baby is three months old and this was my first injection.

Consult a gynecologist to confirm the pregnancy and discuss options. Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) might be a viable option, but it's essential to follow local laws and regulations. Typically, MTP is allowed up to 12 weeks of gestation. Your wife's pregnancy is likely around 1-2 weeks, considering her period date was on the 23rd.
