Keep your child well hydrated. Give her plenty of water. Coconut water and buttermilk/chaas is good too.
Avoid sugary drinks like packed juices and colas.
Make sure she's not eating any outside food and the drinking water is clean.
Try stopping milk for a few days. Give curd instead.
Syp Zinconia (zinc acetate) 20mg/5ml, once a day for 14 days.
