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.

A woman can get pregnant and have a baby as soon as she begins ovulating, or producing eggs. This typically occurs about a year after they first begin menstruating, which usually happens between the ages of 11 and 12. Some women start ovulating late, though, and others, extremely early.

I'm really worried because for the past couple of days, my son's eyes have been getting watery, and he has to rub them to feel a bit better. It's strange because we don't actually see any water coming out, and luckily, his eyes aren't hurting. What could be causing this?
