My son 2 year 10 month old.
100 cm height and 12.5 kg weight didn't gain weight in last 1 year. Due to repeated fever with high temp above 102 .Each time settles in 4-5 days with ibugesic syrup and augmentin duo dry syrup.
Only fever no other symptoms and after fever cough starts.
And cough takes another 4-5 days with chericof syrup and during that period no desire for eat only liquid or fruits .
My question is why this happen almost in every 30-45 days either only fever or cold with fever.
I have done CRP test it's show 4.69mg/l
And no malaria and widal test negative.
What to conclude now. Any other test if require pls suggest.

Concerned about Newborn Weight Gain
My Daughter's Birth Weight was 2.6 kg. After 75 days her weight is 3.65 kg. Exclusively breastfeeding her.
Initial weeks her weight gain was lesser. Now she is increasing about 150-170gms per week.
I feel she should be given Formula milk topping.
But my Pediatrician is saying if the weight gain is showing an upward trend then no need of Formula. I am not convinced somehow.
Please suggest what need to be done !

Rashes on face and scalp
My 3.5 month old baby has developed rashes (see attached picture). These rashes come and go frequently. I apply Chicco anti rash cream. These initially appear as red patches, then a small boil like thing grows and the next day it subsides.
He used to top feed formula along with BM but for the past four days he is only on BM and is refusing formula.
Please suggest the reason behind the rashes and the remedy.
