For an 8-year-old girl using Waxonil ear drops, place 2-3 drops in the affected ear twice daily. It's best to let her lie down with the ear facing up for a few minutes after applying. Always consult a pediatrician or an ENT specialist for proper guidance and to ensure it's safe for her condition.

Your son's been having mucus for three years - that's not normal. Mucus can mean allergies, infections, irritants. He might cough, clear his throat, swallow a lot. Drink water, use a humidifier, stay away from smoke.

It appears that the little one has a cough; this sounds chesty. When I say chesty, I mean that he/she has mucus in his/her chest. If not handled well, the kid may struggle to breathe or vomit. The first measure is to give the child plenty of water to drink. Think of installing a humidifier right in his/her bedroom so that the air can be a bit moist. In case things go south and the cough becomes severe, feel free to seek the help of a pediatrician.

My concern is coming from the fact that you get tired quite early, say at 8 p.m., have no appetite at all, and seem to have stopped adding weight and becoming taller. These signs could be caused by things like lack of proper nutrients or a sickness. Therefore, you should share this information with a responsible grown-up – maybe a family member or your teacher – so that they assist you in getting medical attention. A doctor will examine you to find out what is wrong and give you the necessary treatment.

Grinding teeth during sleep is quite common for kids; it's called bruxism. Causes range from stress to misaligned teeth. Often, it goes away naturally as they grow up. However, if persisting, consulting a dentist proves wise. They may recommend a mouthguard to safeguard teeth and prevent grinding.
