It's generally not recommended to administer Vomikind syrup or tablets without consulting a doctor, especially after surgery. Vomikind, which contains ondansetron, can be helpful for managing nausea and vomiting, but it's crucial to determine the underlying cause of the vomiting and loose motions and to ensure it's safe for your mother to take given her specific medical history and recent surgery

I broke my tibia and fibula a while ago and now one leg is 2cm shorter than the other. I've been using a shoe wedge to balance it out, but I was offered leg extension surgery with a cage that could take up to 9 months to heal. Is it worth going through all that for just 2cm?

Leg extension surgery is a significant procedure, and considering the 2cm difference, it may not be necessary unless the imbalance severely affects your daily activities or posture. Discuss non-surgical options with an orthopedic specialist.
