Hello payal |
Payal |
Doctor, my son has a very bad habit of
thumb sucking, we've tried everything but e just doesnt give up |
Dr
C H Asrani |
For a change try talking to him as if he
is an elder person and explain why it is bad. Also try finding any cause of any insecurity
that he may be feeling |
Payal |
Ive heard theres something
to be put on the finger |
Payal |
Some kind of ointment |
Payal |
Does it work? |
Dr
C H Asrani |
Thumb sucking generally has a feeling of
insecurity in the background |
Dr
C H Asrani |
Those things are not recommended |
Reshma |
Doctor, my daughter has terrible stomach
ache whenever she gets her periods, what can I give her? |
Dr
C H Asrani |
Other than appropriate pain killers no
other medicines |
Reshma |
Will this continue as long as she
menstruates |
Dr
C H Asrani |
May settle down after marriage or child
birth |
Reshma |
But is it alright to give medicines for
that long |
Dr
C H Asrani |
Yes, since they are taken intermittently |
Reshma |
