Chronic coughing
My 2.3year old son is facing cough n cold problem. He gets fine n then again after 1week he catches. I m facing this problem from past 3mnths. I have given him antibiotic twice. But his cough doesn't go totally. I m very much afraid. Please suggest something which can build his immunity. Also his hemoglobin is 11.1.He don't want to eat anything. How can I increase his appetite. Can b complex be used for long term. Plz help.
He needs to be investigated for repeated cough, whether it's a allergic, asthmatic cough needs to be seen. Infections don't go so long. Better investigate like CBC CRP ESR LFT RFT x-ray chest IGE level vitamin D3 level calcium alkpo4 and Mantoux test on left forearm. He will need iron supplements vitamin D3 supplement etc. Please visit your pediatrician
