Hello Doctor, Is it necessary for the new born to be placed in Phototherapy when shown yellow colour or exposing to sunlight is better? Why is it doctors prefer to keep child in nicu rather than exposing baby to sunlight? Can you please clear my doubt?

Is it okay to take Azithromycin after 2 days of vaccination for my newborn.Does it interfere with contents of vaccine.My newborn of age 2.5 months got probably viral infection during a flight travel 3 days before

Hi Doc, My son is 5 months 4 days to be precise. He is entirely on top feed. I have started solid food like photo puree, sweet potato puree, carrot puree etc in variation from last 9 days .Soon will be starting with fruits, rice and dal powder paste. My pediatrician have asked to add salt and ghee ( in rice and dal powder) for taste in food . He  said for our environment adding salt is necessary. Is it advisable to add salt in baby's food as many are advising ( including other friends consulted pediatricians of same location) not to add salt until child is 1yrs. Same goes with diary product like milk , ghee etc. Please advise . Thanks in Advance.

Since yesterday my 9.5 months old baby is having severe reflux. He is often taking burps and feeling pukish. He spitted out milk few time. In the night too he was very restless. Not sure if his stomach is paining. This is happening since yesterday evening when I have him sweet corn soup. Also since few days he is having such relux bt very minimal.
