Hi there , as per the information provided , hi weight as well as height are on the bottom of normal for his age. It definitely require a more detailed history and need to monitor for velocity of height gain ( rate of increase of height) . You can very well add Pediasure twice daily or any protein drink. A good balanced diet is more important.
