A. the most common cause would be due to nutritional deficiency there is a possibility that your cxhild is having nutritional deficiency which is causing such changes in the child so give plenty of water and seasonal fruits and vegetables and meet your doctor who will tell you whether xany health supplements in the form of iron calcium vitamin d or multi vitamin is required or not .
