Child With Dark Circles And Fatigue. Giving Bromelian For Underweight. What Can Be Done?
My 5 year old daughter s forehead , back and chest are unusually hot all the time but it s not a fever. She has dark circles under her eyes, fatigue and says she has a headache but there is no sinus discharge. She is underweight . We give her chewable bromelain now instead of ibuprofen, decongestants, tylenoil, and antihistamines as it works better and is safer. Antibiotics worked in the past but for only one month. This has been going on for years. What can be done?

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum,
She needs to be shown to an endocrinologist and get her blood tested properly. Before giving her so many medicines its better you get her tested properly.
Hope your child gets well soon.
