What medicine for my kid's frequent throat clearing?

My kid had constant throat clearing and dry cough he feels some mucus stuck in throat but couldn't cough out..... It's been the third time in this year now.... What medicine should I give..... No runny nose and fever now....

Answered on 7th Oct '24

It seems like your child has postnasal drip. This happens when mucus from the nose drips down into the throat, causing throat clearing sounds and a dry cough. It can happen even without a runny nose or fever. You can help by giving your child warm drinks and using a humidifier to ease the congestion. Make sure they drink plenty of water to help thin the mucus as well.

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 12 year old daughter weighs 145 pounds but you can’t see it

Female | 12

It's important to understand that a person's external appearance doesn't always reflect their actual weight. Often, excess weight can be hidden within the body, which may result from a lack of physical activity or consuming unhealthy foods. This hidden weight can lead to issues like fatigue, breathing difficulties, or joint pain. To address this, it's advisable to eat healthy foods, stay active, and consult a doctor for guidance.

We are giving medicine from last four 4 years from qualified doctors of pakistan dr noreen akhtar but the child swelled when she leaves the medicine for a month.

Female | 10

Swelling afte­r stopping medicine could show ede­ma, a condition where fluid builds up. This happens be­cause the body adjusts to medicine­, then responds when it's re­moved suddenly. Many reasons like­ heart or kidney problems can cause­ edema. Doctors slowly reduce­ doses to avoid reactions like swe­lling. It's crucial to talk with your doctor about this concern.

My son is a year old and he fell during the night and bit the inside of his lower lip. He was bleeding but I managed to stop it, now it is swollen. I am scared, what can I do? I gave him painamol syrup for kids.

Male | 1

Your son has a common lip bite injury. Swelling is normal and should go down in a few days. To help with this, gently press a cold compress on the outside of his lip. Painamol can be effective for the pain. Keep an eye on him to ensure he can still eat and drink comfortably.

Female | 4

Your daughter's low sugar le­vels are concerning. Kids rare­ly have low blood sugar without diabetes. Symptoms like­ tiredness, dizziness, shakine­ss, or unconsciousness occur. Not eating enough or having anothe­r condition causes it. Doctors running tests is wise. Me­anwhile, regular meals and snacks stabilize­ sugar levels.
