INFANTILE SPASMS - RECOVERY
Dear Doctor's,
My 1.5yr old son had involuntary movements just 3weeks ago and after EEG & MRI, pediatric neurologist confirmed that it is infantile spasms and initially started giving Valparin 2.5ml. after one week, pediatric neurologist suggested to give ACTH injection and B-Long prolongatam tablet for a week and he started showing really active. Then Doctor changed from ACTH injection to SABRIL 500mg tablet (1/4th twice for 3days and 1/2 twice to continue) + Omnacortil syrup 5ml Twice a day along with 3.5ml Valparin after food. Now he is really recovered and not showing involuntary movements since 2days... As per the prescription, we need to increase the dosage of SABRIL 500mg tablet from 1/4th of the tablet twice to 1/2 of the tablet twice a day. (As per prescription we need to increase the dosage from 1/4th to 1/2 after 3days and 3days over) My questions is,
As per our observation, my son is not showing involuntary movements, but he is getting saliva in his mouth. is it common??

Rashes at private parts
Hello Experts,
My 6 months old daughter got rashes at private parts and also suffering from motions (5 times a day). The problem is since last 4 days. As per doctors advise we used bifilac 2 times a day, siloderm cream for rashes. Actually we have changed the milk powder from similac advance stage 1 to similac advance IQ+ stage 2 15 days back. Does it creates any impact in health conditions ?
Does siloderm works effectively for rashes ?
As there is no result for more than 3 days after using siloderm and bifilac, we visited the same doctor again for suggestion. (We avoided using diapers from last 4 days and Regualarly washing nappies with hot water).
Now doctor has entirely changed the prescription and asked us to use T-bact cream 3 times a day, monocef syrup 2times a day for 5 days, zinc drops for 14 days and also changed the milk powder to Isomil or Nan low lac and enterogermina to avoid motions in place of bifilac. We are very much worried as we see slight bulge at her private part

Adenoidectomy Surgery
Our 4-yr 9m-old child has been experiencing recurrent episodes of cold and cough, spanning approximately 1 year and 9 months. Despite multiple consultations with pediatricians and ENT specialists ( as once my son complainleft air pain), the symptoms persisted, with temporary remissions following medication.
Since November last year, the child has been exhibiting persistent cold and cough symptoms, for which we have been administering prescribed medications. Last month, the child again complained of ear pain, prompting a visit to an ENT specialist. The ENT specialist prescribed a combination of Levolin and Budcort for 15 days and requested an X-ray.
The X-ray report indicates mild soft tissue enlargement in the nasopharyngeal roof, suggestive of enlarged adenoids.
Based on this report, the ENT specialist has recommended adenoidectomy surgery following a 1-month course of Synospray and Sinomet. Is surgical intervention the sole viable option for our child's condition.

Feeling of nausea during TB Treatment
Hello. My report says:
• "Right Sided Pleural Effusion with underlying minimal consolidation, Effusion measures approx 800-900 ml. No pleural effusion seen on the left side."
• ADA (Pleural Fluid):- 56.8 U/L
• MTB-RIF Assay:- "MTB NOT DETECTED".
I started my treatment with the standard 'NTEP' medication on 20th July 2023. The doctor did not aspirate the entire pleural fluid out. They just took a syringe sample out for testing.
After 20-22 days of regular medication, I'm feeling a bit unwell. I feel slight heaviness with a mild vibration in my right chest when I inhale. Also, there's a slight growth in my coughing frequency. For a few days after medication, my coughing was negligible. I also feel nausea, fatigue, and some gastric problems such as acidity and vomiting.
I take medicine (4 tabs) around 9 AM everyday with 5 minute gaps between each pill. One day I forgot to take medicines around 9 and took it between 9.30-9.45 AM. Is there any problem due to that? Please suggest.
