How can I reduce my baby's acute diarrhea?
Diarrhea can be defined as the frequent passing of loose or watery stools. It may be triggering by infections, which are caused by bacteria or viruses, or as the side effects of antibiotics. To help with diarrhea, ensure your baby's fluids are kept up by giving him water or oral rehydration solutions. If not, avoid sugary drinks. Besides them, try to give him other easy-to-digest foods like bananas, applesauce, rice, and toast. If the intestinal disorder lasts, please consult a pediatrician for further treatment.

Why do I have chest, back, hand pain and gas?
You're experiencing chest and back pain, along with pain in your hands and shoulders, due to gas. Gas can cause pain by pressing against sensitive areas and making your stomach feel bloated. You might also feel like you're unable to pass gas. To help with this, try breathing fresh air, stretching, and avoiding foods that worsen gas, like beans and carbonated drinks. Keep drinking fluids, but also be aware that anxiety can make your gas problems worse. If these symptoms continue, see a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

How can I unclog my ear effectively?
The ear canal can be clogged and uncomfortable when wax builds up and gets removed, which can sometimes result in swelling and sulking. This may make you think your ear is blocked and may cause you pain when burping or swallowing. To help unclog your ear, try using warm olive oil drops to soften any remaining wax. You can also try gently irrigating your ear with warm water to help clear out any residue. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to seek further advice from your ENT specialist.
