Wound advise

Doctor, my baby is 40 days old. Yesterday, I accidentally injured my baby’s palm with my fingernail. The skin was scraped off and there was some bleeding. Does my baby need a tetanus vaccine or any other preventive treatment? Are there any special precautions I should take to prevent infection? Could you please examine the wound and advise me?

Feeding Issues

We have a 55 day baby. He is currently on mixed feed. we are currently feeding him formula using palada every 4 hrs, remaining time he latches. The problem we have is  feeding using palada is getting difficult since he moves his leg and arms too much and tries to take whole milk which results in frequent choking. we tried earlier using bottle, but within 2 days he got so much addicted to bottle that he started refusing breasts. Would like to have suggestions here.

Colic in infant

My son is 51 days old. for last few days he is crying very intensively in evening which is very hard to console. even if you able to console he gets soothes for 5-10 minutes and starts again. we gave him colicaid which doesnot seems working for him. I tried colimex which helped him but am unsure since its prescribed for 6 months plus. Also, is he having colic or aomething else.
