A. it is very common that during the disease process the child will have loss of appetite as well as after the disease the child will have decreased appetite for food and this will last for at least one week. you have to provide plenty of water zto drink and you can give food rich in fluids as well as juice extracted from fruits which will help in improving the appetite. if if the child isz having nutritional deficiency the doctor will add multivitamin supplements to increase the appetite.

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving fresh fruits and fruit juices, lemon juice, curd rice, khichadi and so on . Serve your child with healthy foods in cute Babyhug bowls to encourage healthy eating. Consult your doctor for further assistance
