My son has been dealing with a health issue and I'm really worried about him needing surgery. Can Ayurveda help him recover without going under the knife? I've heard mixed things and want to know if it's a safe option to explore before considering surgery. What are the chances of him getting back to normal with Ayurvedic treatment?

Depends on his condition; Ayurveda can help mild cases—choose a qualified Vaidya, but don’t delay essential allopathic care if urgent.

I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old son. He's had these carry bags, or puffiness, under his eyes since he was born. We went to a local clinic today, and the doctor mentioned a few possible issues that have me worried. He said it could be related to his kidneys, allergies, or that his growth isn't quite right. Can you help me understand what might be going on here and what steps we should take next?

I'm really concerned about my 5-year-old daughter. Her recent urine test showed pus cells in the range of 8-10 per HPF. Is this something we should be worried about? What's considered normal for a child her age? I'm worried if this could be dangerous. Could you help me understand what this means and how we can address it?

The normal ratio of pus cells in the urine of a 5-year-old girl is usually less than 5 per high power field (HPF). Therefore, 8-10 pus cells per HPF may indicate an infection. While a UTI is not usually dangerous, it is important to treat it promptly to prevent complications such as kidney infection. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
