Regarding Child Weight and Urine Report
Hi my son is 2.7yrs old and is 11.5 kgs now. He had Urine Infection recently and was given antibiotics post multiple Urine Culture report. From few days he is urinating in bed without knowledge. So again i repeated Urine routine test. All is normal except it is mentioned as trace of ketone in Urine.
He is very active and playful all the time. Only concern is about his weight and what does it mean by trace of ketone in urine. Pls advise

The report is normal.
But if he had an episode of Urinary tract infection, it's advisable to get his USG abdomen for kidney, ureter and urinary bladder. Also he has poor Weight gain.
Also sometimes because of phimosis (tight prepuce), child may show some infection. Do get it checked by your doctor.
