Hi,

Does your child have productive cough or non productive cough ?
What time of the day does she have cough ?
Usually the child has common upper respirator tract infection in which you don't have to do any thing but they are less accompanied by fever.
Do you have any blood test report of your child ?
The common causes of repeated cough are asthma,lung infection like pneumonia,repeated viral infection.
Do she have any problem in breathing or any sounds while she deep breathes or any time when she has difficulty in breathing ?
Give plenty of fluids to your child for now and update me with further details so that i can tell you something.
Low haemoglobin level in blood will make her prone for repeated infections and should be corrected as soon as possible after knowing the cause about it or investigating the cause for it.
Please tell me about her blood tests

Hi,

Did your child have blood transfusion,the reports are suggestive that she is suffering from thallasemia and plus combination of iron as well as folic acid deficency anemia and she must be requiring regular transfusions for thallasemia.
There are thallsemia societies in every city and which help in donation and transfusions and she would also require iron therapy as she also has iron deficency anemia and she might fall ill regularly because of anemia as herr immunity may remain a little low.
She can be given vaccines for respiratory infections(life threatining illnesses),you may consult a padiatrician for that.

I hv been having problems of dizziness, and spinning sensations since last 4/5 days. Had the same earlier abt 2 yrs back but on a very mild scale and they went away without any medication. This time it has been rather acute. Visited the physician and hv been prescribed Vertin 8 mg 1x3 times a day before bkfst, lunch and dinner. After three days feeling better but the sensations are still there albeit milder. Feel the spinning sensation especially when I look straight up/down and then bring the head back to normal posn.Again when I am changing sides on bed while lying down from left to right rpt left to right I feel the same sensation. Tho' the dizziness and the spinning sensations are less now after taking the dosages of Vertin 8 last three days would u hv any advice as to how long it takes normally for the problems to be totally eliminated? I am particularly concerned as I am, tho' a retired person, a man of fairly active habits and for the various domestic chores often hv to drive quite a bit in heavy city traffic and as a result of this problem am completely grounded which is affecting our day-to-day life styles and needs.

Hi, Tablet Vertin is used for relief of vertigo due to several reasons, but it is to be known why is this vertigo occurring. For that reason MRI and other tests needs to be done. The possible causes could be some problem in the brain or ear. If there is chronic disease in the ear, the internal ear is effected and there will be vertigo. The duration of vertigo will depend on the cause. To prevent worsening of symptoms during episodes of vertigo, try the following: - Keep still, sit or lie dow ...

Doctor's Answer

Hi!! YAMINI is an oral contraceptive that produces an artificial cycle.If earlier your menses were for 22 days but after starting yamini they come regularly after every 25 days,it is normal. Also,chances of conceving on yamini are extremely low if you are taking the pill correctly,that is,taking it daily,not missing any tablet and starting the next packet on the 8th day of finishing the previous packet ...

Doctor's Answer

Hi, Try and monitor your blood pressure for a few days may be 7-10 days regularly. Monitor your b.p twice in a day, morning and evening. If your b.p is always above that 140 mark then your dosage might be changed. Otherwise b.p around 140 mark is considered good at that age ,other risk factors need to be assessed like your diabetic status and obesity but first of all you monitor your b.p for a few days regularly with your normal diet pattern (which should be low salt and oil intake) Feel free ...
