Patient's Query

Sir my daughter has chest congestion last 14 days& cold&cough.pls tell me the best medicine fr congestion.

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Your daughter is experiencing symptoms commonly associated with respiratory infections, such as chest congestion, cough, and a cold. These can be caused by viruses, allergies, or irritants in the environment. To alleviate her discomfort, consider using a humidifier, warm fluids, and over-the-counter medications like expectorants or antihistamines, which can help in easing congestion. However, if her symptoms persist or worsen, it is essential to consult a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and tailored care.

Hello I have a question my daughter is 5 and doesn't talk much she will grunt cry n throw tantrums when I ask her what's wrong and try to help her she won't communicate with me at all

Female | 5

Your child may be expressing themselves through non-verbal behavior, which could indicate a communication disorder. Some children struggle to verbalize due to factors like developmental delays, hearing issues, or autism spectrum disorder. It's important to consult a speech therapist for assessment and therapy to help improve their communication skills and make it easier for them to express their thoughts.

Sometimes not producing sperm at 17 could be due to hormonal imbalances, genetic factors, infections, or even certain medications. It's essential to see a sexologist for a thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause. There are treatments available depending on the reason behind it. In the meantime, focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise.

My 5 year old baby is suffering from unprotectable coughing at night while sleeping please help me.. how to control her cough.. she is unable to sleep continuously for 5 minutes

Female | 5

It seems your child is having trouble with nighttime coughing, which can be tough for both of you. This coughing might be due to throat or chest irritation. You can try using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, giving her warm drinks like water or herbal tea before bed, and slightly elevating her head while she sleeps. These steps may help reduce the coughing.

Male | 10

If you have a lot of energy and are having trouble sitting still or focusing, it's called hyperactivity. This is marked by symptoms like incessant movement, fidgeting, and impulsiveness. Hyperactivity can be brought about by factors like genetics, environment, or even food sensitivities. To manage the condition of hyperactivity, it is necessary to have a balanced diet, to sleep sufficiently, and to exercise regularly. Occasionally, therapy or medication may also be of assistance.

My wife breastfeeds my son is 1 year and 2 months old can she take a 5 mg clonazepam tablet just one day once is it harmful in the same way???

Female | 20

Clonaze­pam gets into breast milk, potentially harming babie­s. Avoiding its use during breastfee­ding, mainly without medical guidance, proves crucial. Infants might e­xperience drowsine­ss, breathing difficulties, and additional side e­ffects due to Clonazepam. Be­fore consuming any medication while nursing, consulting a doctor se­ems advisable for your wife's we­ll-being.

My baby 2.10 Years old, but he did not talk. He is a pre-mature baby. He is very phone addicted. He is hearing any sound, any time he suffering cold, cough and fever.

Male | 2.10

Premature babies tend to have some delay in growth and development but will catch up later . Child needs detailed development assessment . There are specific parent questionnaire on development which parent can observe and answer . Child also needs formal hearing and speech assessment.
Extended or long screen times like cell phones / TV are best avoided .. as they have an impact on child s development.
