Why won't Bandy syrup kill my child's worms?
Oh no, it is sad to hear about worms in your child's stomach. Such worms may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, itching, or fatigue. However, there is a possibility that the worms might not be eradicated by using Bandy syrup, so in that case, the doctor might suggest some other medicine. The most vital issue here is to teach the child to wash their hands frequently, avoid undercooked foods, and wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. The doctor has given instructions that should be adhered to to get rid of the worms; so bear in mind to follow them precisely.

Could my 3-month-old have cochlear outer hair cell issues?
Maybe your child is not able to hear as well because the outer hair cells in the cochlea are affected. Not only this but the child may lack in hearing or have difficulty in responding to the everyday sounds as it was before. This disorder can be due to infections or because of exposure to loud noises. The positive side is that an audiologist will be able to diagnose the issue and provide solutions, such as hearing aids.

Should my 9-year-old swim with 50% adenoid enlargement?
Sometimes having enlarged adenoids can make them more susceptible to cold. Perhaps swimming is a factor that irritates his adenoids. It is important to ensure his health is not sacrificed for his swimming hobby. I suggest giving a short break to him swimming and observing whether his adenoids get better. This might help him get less affected by cold.

Why is my son underweight with frequent vomiting?
It looks like he has perhaps a problem called "gastrointestinal issues." Bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections, food allergies, or stress can cause it.

You should consult a pediatrician for proper guidance.

Can I Get Admission with Past MMR Immunity Proof?
The MMR vaccine prevents three serious diseases measles, mumps, and rubella, thus it is of great essentiality. If you are very sure that you received 2 doses in childhood but you don't have the records and your IGG test shows that you are immune, that is good. You must get a certificate for your admission to the MS program. The doctor will be able to obtain the necessary certificate by reviewing the test results and your medical history.
