A. Good Growth of the child is very important and for this most important is that child should take a healthy diet where its necessary to give a balance diet which should contain all the nutrition required. This is very important for building the immunity also. Encourage for green vegetables fruits dairy products all kinds of dal and other protein containing food items like soyabean eggs etc. Some nutritional deficiencies can be a cause for less appetite like iron deficiency which is most cgommon. Supplements like iron supplements and multivitamin wfith lysine like syp zincovit CL can be given for 1-2 months to increase the appetite. Diet counselling is also very important .

A. Hi It probably could be due to dry skin that your child is having irritation or itching in the skin so start applying any nice the cream you can go ahead with NMFE vitamin E cream if you want to and for loss of appetite get the haemoglobin level check for the child
