What could be the reason a baby fuss while passing stools?

Hello doctor,

I saw a red color wound inside the anus of my 3 month old baby. He is fussy while passing stool. Is it anal fissure? Do we need to consult our pediatrician immediately? I am expecting your valuable advice.

Thanks in advance.

What is the treatment for allergic cough in a 5-year-old?

Hello doctor,

My boy is 5 years and 8 months old. He is having allergic sneezing, on and off cold from the past eight months (my wife has a regular allergic sneezing regularly). He is good, but since three days he is having occasional cough and sneezing occasionally (especially in the morning). I have been consulting a pediatrician regularly but cold is always keeps coming back. So, we have been using homeopathy medicine for him for the past two months. The problem cold and cough has not gone, it is less. But now, since there is a lockdown everywhere and he is coughing, I am just worried. Kindly suggest allopathic treatment for my son.

What could cause newborns to cry through the night and have inconsistent signs of hunger?

Hello doctor,

We have noticed that she frequently coughs up milk every day due to reflux and gas concerns. She appears to need around an hour after feeding to discharge gas and calm down, even after burping. Her temperature is normal. Her urinary and bowel motions seem to be regular, showing no discoloration. Currently, Infacol is being given to her on a feed-yes, feed-no basis. Her weight right now is almost 6.61 pounds. Despite not being hungry, she occasionally eats and then coughs up some milk. We would appreciate your advice on how to handle these problems.

Kindly help.

Thank you.
