I'm a bit worried about my 3-month-old baby. I've been feeding them both formula milk, specifically Lactogen, and breast milk since they were 2 months old. Everything seemed fine, but lately, I've noticed they've started having greenish stools for about a week now. I'm thinking about switching from Lactogen to Nan Pro. Is it safe to make this change? And why might their stools be green?

Marijuana does not directly affect HIV test results. HIV tests detect antibodies or antigens related to the virus, not substances like marijuana. However, if you're concerned about your HIV test result or CBC variations, consider the following: 1. _Window period_: HIV tests may not detect the virus if taken too early after exposure. The window period varies depending on the test type. 2. _Test sensitivity_: No test is 100% accurate. False negatives can occur. 3. _CBC variations_: Changes in your CBC results might be unrelated to HIV or marijuana use. To alleviate your concerns: 1. _Retest_: Consider retesting for HIV after the recommended window period. 2. _Consult a healthcare professional_: Discuss your test results, marijuana use, and any concerns with a doctor or counselor.

My child has a really high fever, and their temperature is at 102F. The doctor suggested giving them Meftal, but even after taking one dose, the fever hasn't gone down. What should I do next, should I keep giving the medication or try something else?...

The medication Meftal is commonly used to reduce fever and relieve pain. In this case, since the fever is still high at 102F after taking Meftal, you can consider giving your child Acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) at a dose appropriate for their age and weight. It is important to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging or as advised by your doctor. Additionally, make sure your child stays hydrated and dress them lightly to help reduce the fever. If the fever persists or if your child's condition worsens, please consult your doctor for further evaluation.

_Self-Care Measures_ 1. _Apply heat_: Use a warm towel or heating pad to relax muscles and increase blood flow. 2. _Stretching exercises_: Gently tilt your head to the left, bringing your ear towards your shoulder. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 10-15 times. 3. _Improve posture_: Maintain good posture to reduce strain on your neck muscles. 4. _Take regular breaks_: If you have a desk job, take breaks every hour to stretch and move around. _Pain Relief Options_ 1. _Over-the-counter pain relievers_: Try acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil). 2. _Topical creams or ointments_: Apply topical creams or ointments containing capsaicin, menthol, or methyl salicylate. _When to Seek Medical Attention_ 1. _Severe pain_: If pain is unbearable or worsens over time. 2. _Numbness or tingling_: If you experience numbness or tingling sensations in your arms or legs. 3. _Difficulty moving_: If you have trouble moving your neck or arms. 4. _Fever or swelling_: If you have a fever or swelling in your neck.

I'm having trouble finding a place in Gurgaon where they give polio drops. We're keeping up with regular immunization like DPT, but I'm wondering if we also need to join these government polio drop programs. Is it necessary?

Since your child is already receiving regular immunizations, including DPT, they are likely protected against polio. However, participating in government-led polio drop programs can provide additional protection, especially since India is still at risk of wild poliovirus importation. To find a place in Gurgaon where polio drops are administered, you can try contacting local health authorities or visiting the National Health Mission website for more information. Additionally, you can reach out to your child's pediatrician for guidance on polio vaccination and drops.

I'm a bit anxious about my baby boy who's almost 4 months old. He's been having frequent small bowel movements, and I've been giving him Bifilac sachets to help. Is it okay to keep using Bifilac regularly? Is it safe for him?

While Bifilac is generally considered safe for infants, long-term or repeated use without medical supervision can lead to an imbalance of gut flora or dependency on probiotics; consult your pediatrician before continuing Bifilac sachets, as they may recommend alternative probiotics, dietary changes, or investigate underlying causes of frequent small motions
