Mother with worries

A week has past and I am busy monitoring my kid for the allergic reactions which are turning him into a cranky and itchy boy. This all started in October 2013 when suddenly one fine morning, lucky starting sneezing frequently. To avoid sneezing take a toll on his health, Me and my MIL immediately took lucky to a near by pediatrician who consulted him and gave few cold syrups and Meftal-p for fever. As new parents and not so experienced in field of medicines, generally parents tend to believe each and everything of doc's advise without thinking about the affects of these allopathy treatments on kids. As per doc's suggestion, we gave 4ml of Meftal-P to Lucky around 9:00PM in evening and made him go to bed. It was mid-night that, he started itching over his ears badly and me and hubby were continuously rubbing  his ears and body to make him sleep in comfort and by this time we had no idea what is happening to him. Suddenly Hubby switched on lights to have some water and in those few seconds I saw, my sons ear were swollen to heck like an elephant ear and his forehead was out of its normal size and his face was completely swollen. Allergy reactions were increasing drastically over his body and on advise of in-laws, we were applying oil on his ear but which had zero affect. Around 3 in morning, we finally decided to take rush to hospital. We were admitted immediately and lucky was injected with high dose of drugs. It took 7 days for him to recover completely. This allergy occurred every time he developed fever and we took him to same doc who treated him for allergy. But, now this was getting out of my hands and I can no longer see my son suffer this way, so we decided to change the doc and get him treated the best. We went to Columbia Asia for his treatment and two consecutive visit to the hospital reveled, the allergic reaction is due to fever and it would rise as fever rises and will go once fever goes. So, today on 6th day, lucky is in good shape without any medicines and treatment and any drugs. Its advisable to consult more then one doc in case of serious reoccurring illness.

Today is fine and playing with his all time favorite Doremon :)

Doc's Advise for Parents/Future Parent :
Meftal -P :  --> Give this medicine to your kid only if he has fever above 102 degree C. Untill his body temp rises to 102, it is better to give him sponge bath with luke warm water over hands and leg (Not over Head) to lower his body temp. Check if your kid have allergy with any medicine.
Cold : no medicine for cold. Give a little brandy at night diluted with water.
Cough : Give a tea spoonful of honey at night before sleep to kid.

Hope this is helpful :)
