Child growth is going 2-3 years behind
I have already consulted with many doctors and all have suggested for healthy diet but this not working. Last year One doctor gave him "Uprise D3" 8 doses on weekly basis and he said every year we can give him 8 doses. Uprise is not available here in the market so can he take Calcirol 60k IU (for 8 years). The other thing is that he is still not growing in normal way. Just going behind 3 years from his age group. Parents are tall and healthy but he is looking behind. I am not sure what to do?
