Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My child is 3 years 1 month now. His birth weight was 2.7 kg. At the end of the first year, he was 7.5 kg. At the end of the second year, he was 9 kg. Now he is 11 kg. He is extremely active and thoughtful but his weight and height are our major concerns.
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concerns.
From what you mentioned, your son is underweight. I suggest that you perform stool analysis in order to exclude any parasitic infection. Also, a hemoglobin test is required to exclude possible anemia. I suggest Dexorange syrup as a multivitamin.
Please provide me with more information regarding his dietary habits.
Follow up is required. Wish you all the wellbeing.
Thank you.
