My 6-year-old started vomiting this morning right after drinking water, and now he's not able to eat much. By this afternoon, he's also complaining about stomach pain. I'm really worried. What could be causing this, and what should I do to help him feel better?

I recommend giving him syrup Ondansetron for vomiting, syrup Domperidone for stomach pain, and syrup Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid. These medications are commonly available in India and can help alleviate his symptoms.

I'm really worried about my son because he's got a high viral fever that goes between 101 and 104. We're already doing sponging when his fever hits 103 and following the medicine schedule our pediatrician suggested, which seems to help lower the fever a bit. But someone mentioned it might be a good idea to keep him in an air-conditioned room with the temperature set to around 24-25 degrees. Do you think it's safe or advisable to use the AC when he's dealing with a viral fever?

I'm a bit concerned and curious because my 12-year-old brother had his first ejaculation when he saw a picture of a naked girl on a friend's phone. He even felt an orgasm without even touching his penis. Is that normal?

I'm worried about my 4-month-old baby's feet and hands. They're often wet and sweaty, especially when he's sleeping or feeding. It's more than what seems normal to us. Is this something to be concerned about, or is it normal for babies this age?
