I'm 4.0 and I'm worried because my height isn't increasing. I'm not sure why this is happening, and I really want to know what I can do about it. Is there something I'm missing or should be doing to help my height grow?

I'm really concerned about my son. He's having skin itching but there aren't any rashes. He's been scratching his head, arm, behind his neck, and foot, and there hasn't been any fever or infection recently. I've noticed his appetite seems to be increasing all of a sudden, and he sometimes complains of abdominal pain. I discovered white particles in his stool, but I did deworm him last month. Right now, he's on an antihistamine. This same kind of itching happened last year, and he was advised to take Banocide syrup along with the antihistamine, and it took almost a month to clear up. I'm really worried. What could be causing this, and what should I give him for the itching and abdominal pain?

Thats Urticaria,identify the allergen and avoid it,also visit dermatologist for appropriate management

My baby is 2 months old and he's not pooping regularly. Sometimes it's 4 to 5 days without any bowel movement. The doctor mentioned if it goes past 7 days, we should give him milk of magnesia. It seems like he only poops when we give him the milk of magnesia after about six days. Is it okay to rely on this medicine, or could there be something else going on? I'm getting worried. Any advice?

Its not uncommon for babies, especially breastfed infants, to go for a few days without having a bowel movement. The milk of magnesia your doctor prescribed can help temporarily, but its important not to rely on it for long-term use. Keep monitoring your babys comfort, hydration, and feeding, and follow up with your doctor if the problem persists or if your baby seems to be in discomfort.
