Breathing problems
Assuming that the allergy tests were right and you dont have dust or mold allergy, I would wonder if you have a food allergy/sensitivity. Milk(products), and gluten(products) are the most common. It can take up to 6 months to get a food out of your system. If you decide to try it, keep a diet diary of what you eat and when you have symptoms. There may be other foods which bother you(eggs, nuts,yeast,etc.). I hope you get better. READ MORE

My son suffers from chronic paronychia of his fingers?
The fact that he is not responding to typical treatment sounds like his immune system is not functioning properly. He may just be low in nutrients( vit. A,B,C,D,etc) or it may be more complicated. I recommend seeing someone who does functional medicine and nutrition. READ MORE
How do you know if your child is allergic to Tylenol?
There is no test that I am aware of to test for it. If you are suspicious of it, start by putting a drop on his arm and look for redness or other reaction over the next day or two. If no reaction, put a drop in mouth and watch for reaction, Have antihistamine available and phone to call 911 if there is a severe reaction. That said, I have never seen a severe allergic reaction to it. READ MORE

How can I find out what allergies my newborn may have?
You will have difficulty finding an allergist who will test a baby that young. The most common allergy in babies is to cows milk, One would need to get a good history of your baby’s symptoms and when they occur. If you are nursing, you might try avoiding milk products for a month to see if that helps. A good history is important. Talk to your doctor. READ MORE
How can I stop my toddler's coughing?
