question:Dear Sir, my son is two years and 3 months old. I still breast feed him but only at night. He does not eat any food with interest and I have to force him to do so. His weight is 10.2 kg. and height is 88 cms. According to my doctor I must stop breast feeding him and then immediately start these medicines for improving his weight. The medicines are Syp Sucrafil DS 5 ml twice and Syp Neogadine Mikros 5ml twice. Please suggest me whether if these two medications are safe and should I give them after stopping the breast feeding. Can I continue to breast feed him at night or stop. Please advise me.
answer:If you ask me . Its absolutely normal to continue breast feeding. It is advantageous both to you and your baby. his weight should be more than 12 kgs, height is within normal range. Give him Nexpro Granules once daily in morning for 1 month. Syr Cypon 5 ml once daily for 15 days. Both this will his welbeing and appetite. Children love to take tasty foods, so cook any thing you can with good amount of oil and ghee, as they are fat and are very essential in maintaining good weght. try to feed him froim your plate while you are feeding instead of running after him with some tasteless boiled food.

question:My 6 month old son has been completely breast fed until now. As I need to resume working soon, please advise what I can give him as a substitute for breast milk while I am away at work, which would not adversely affect his immunity and provide him proper nutrition. I intend to breast feed him early in the morning and at night when I am home.
answer:slowly start to give soft foods like cooked and grinded vegetables like potato carrot smashed rice, toor dhall in a semisolid state, which has to be increased slowly in quantity and by 1 year the child should be trained to take all he diet.
question:My great grand daughter (5 yrs old) has and infection on the last joint of her middle finger. It has big lesions of pus and is swollen and very red. One of them was so big they popped it to let some of the pus out and so it wouldn t hurt quite so bad. The doctors in Phoenix, AZ have not been able to identify what is causing this to happen. She had the same infection on another finger of the other hand about a year ago. She also had what looked like the same infection on her arm a few months ago, after she got a scratch at the playground. The doctors do put her on antibiotics and it finally starts looking better and goes away, but takes a long time. They are thinking it is an autoimmune problem. Pictures of her finger looked like something to do with cat fever to a friend, who is a vet assistant. I found a picture of Verruca Vulgaris that looked a lot like the picture I have. Any ideas? I appreciate your help. Dorothy L.
answer:You are absolutely on wrong tract. verruca vulgaris or common wart are never pus filled nor are they painful. Your grand daughter is having repeated boils or bacterial infection. Predisposition factor can be associated scabies infection. Apply Permite Cream all over the body for 3 days and repeat after 15 days. also take syr Augmentin DDS 4ml twice daily for 5days.. if the infection recurs after 15 days your baby has to be evaluated for immunodeficiency diseases ( both congenital and aquired)
