My kid is 4 years old and he's still not talking as much as I'd expect. I've been to the pediatrician, and he recommended two syrups called Forts B and Neotoserum. I've been giving them to my child for the past six months, and while I've noticed some improvement, he still isn't understanding everything and can't always reply properly. What else should I be doing?

Nipple Discharge: Normal or Abnormal?
Normal Reasons:
- Hormonal fluctuations: Changes in estrogen and progesterone levels can cause nipple discharge.
- Stimulation or squeezing: As you've experienced, squeezing or stimulating the nipples can cause a clear discharge.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding: Hormonal changes during pregnancy or breastfeeding can lead to nipple discharge.
Abnormal Reasons:
- Galactorrhea: A hormonal imbalance can cause spontaneous nipple discharge, often accompanied by other symptoms like irregular periods or infertility.
- Prolactinoma: A benign tumor in the pituitary gland can cause an overproduction of prolactin, leading to nipple discharge.
- Breast cancer or other tumors: In rare cases, nipple discharge can be a symptom of breast cancer or other tumors.

My 1-month-old son has a bigger belly button that's about 2 cm in height. Also, his right testicle sometimes swells up to almost double the size of the left one. The doctor says it might go away on its own within a year or else he'll need surgery. I'm really worried do these issues usually resolve by themselves?
A 2 cm umbilical hernia in a newborn usually resolves by itself within the first year, but if it doesn’t, surgery may be required. The testicular swelling should be monitored, but often resolves without intervention.

My 7-month-old daughter has labial fusion for the past 2 days. My wife cleans her daily but noticed the labia sticking together. She pees fine, but the doctor said it's from infection and prescribed clotrimazole vaginal gel and levofloxacin ornidazole suspension. We started the meds a day ago but no improvement yet. I read it's called labial adhesion should I be worried about surgery at her age? What else can we do?
sx opinion is advised.
