Milk Allergy
Does Kid Outgrown milk allergy? Is there any medicine for a milk allergy?
My son was having wheezing and shortness of breath sounds. His X Ray has deviated trachea but X Ray Report says it is in normal position and also CECT Chest came normal.
The only change I remembered was introducing Pediasure Zero Sucrose and Full Cream Milk after he turned 2. Earlier he used to drink Similac Isomil. Why I think it has milk allergy once we get him tested for hives and it has milk value 2.00 KU/L and also we have multiple blood test done and his iron came low multiple times and doctor asked us to stop normal milk. We thought the wheezing sound was due to low iron.
Now we have stopped Formula and Full Milk and Start giving him Similac Isomil again. There is almost negligible wheezing and Shortness of breath sounds. It looks like a milk allergy to us.
My son is 2 Years 2 Months old. Similac Isomil is up to 24 months. Are there any side effects ? Or it is only low in nutrition and we can give him.
After going through ur whole history- I can’t understand what amount of milk you want to offer a 2 yrs 2 months old child? If he had proven milk allergies- adjust him to daily household foods- we adults take - that adjustment should be done every child from 18-24 months- adding ghee or butter- in baby to allergic to milk products - does not have problems- please go through ICMR nutritional guidelines-Exclusive Breastfeeding (0-6 months):
For the first six months, breast milk is sufficient to provide all essential nutrients for an infant's physical and mental development.
Complementary Feeding (after 6 months):
Introduce home-made, nutrient-dense, semi-solid foods in addition to breastfeeding. Examples include:
Mashed fruits and vegetables
Cereals and pulses
Eggs and meat, if available
Continued Breastfeeding:
Continue breastfeeding along with complementary foods for at least two years.

Provide foods that are rich in energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals.
