This is concerning. This could indicate an allergic response. Discontinue using the patches immediately. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly. To alleviate discomfort, try gently cleansing the affected area with cool water and applying a mild, soothing lotion.

I have taken vitamin D medicine continuously for 8 days despite for once a week
Female | 58
You need to take vitamin D supplements correctly. Don't take daily doses meant for weekly intake. That causes vitamin D overload. It triggers nausea, vomiting, weakness. Stop taking excess vitamin D immediately. Drink lots of water. Allow your body time to recover. Follow doctor's prescription diligently next time.

If your child shows no signs of distress and the swallowed coin is in the simple position it should move on its own within 24-48 hours. But you should closely watch your symptoms, stools, and bowel movements during this period. You needs to refer to the pediatric gastroenterologist for further investigations and treatment.
