I'm really concerned about my son. He's always been a very active child, but I'm worried because he started saying a few words at 11 months and then stopped. Now he's 2.6 years old and still isn't speaking. My husband and I both work, so he's usually alone at home. We saw a pediatrician when he was 20 months, and they said we should talk to him more, but it's hard to tell if this is a speech delay or something else. Could you please provide some advice on what we should do next?

Talk more to him, encourage reading, singing, and social interaction. Check his hearing and consider speech therapy if progress doesn't happen. Be patient and consistent with these practices, but don't hesitate to seek professional guidance if you're still concerned.

I'm giving my 18-month-old son Sinarest AF for his cold. I've been giving him 4ml three times a day for the past three days, and he seems to be getting better with it. I'm wondering if it's safe to continue using this medication in the future whenever he catches a cold. Is it okay to keep doing this?
Sinarest-AF is a combination medication that contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Chlorpheniramine. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms of cold and flu. In children, especially under 2 years old, the safety and efficacy of Phenylephrine and Chlorpheniramine are not well established. It is recommended to consult with a pediatrician before giving Sinarest-AF to children under 2 years old. For cold symptoms in children, it is important to focus on supportive care such as ensuring adequate rest, hydration, and a healthy diet. If your son has cold symptoms in the future, it is best to consult with a pediatrician for appropriate treatment options.
