Brief Answer:
Start multivitamin syrup

Detailed Answer:
hi,
Welcome to hcm.
can understand your concern.

immunity of child decrease if child eat outside food.Its because of low immunity that child is getting cold much more frequently.

kindly do complete blood count, crp levels.

in my opinion, you should also start multivitamin syrup like syrup bevon 5 ml once a day for 3 months. Review after 3 Weeks. Give more citrus fruits like orange and dry fruits.
Repeat complete blood count after 1 week.If symptoms persist then get child examined skin solution.

Take care.
