Dear Doctor,
My 7 year old boy often complaints about back pain and head ache. He is not interested in almost anything he does, his enthusiasm for doing anything is short lived.
Pls suggest as to which tests should we be doing for him, and make necessary changes in his lifestyle so that he can excel in his life. And he is happy.
Thanks and Regards
