Suggest Remedy For Weakness And Pain In Rib Area

My 8 year old daughter has been feeling sick on and off for over 4 weeks and feeling hot, although she has no temperature. She is looking very pale (normally very healthy), and seems very tired. She feels sick immediately after food. She is dairy intolerant and when it was diagnosed the consultant did tell us to keep an eye on her tolerance of soya ( her brother is soya-, dairy- intolerant and is also coeliac). I have now put her on a strictly soya-free regime (last 2 days) but no obvious changes yet. She has also complained of pains occasionally down her sides (rib area). GP has checked her for tonsilitis, chest, and urine sampled for water infection but all clear. Virus suggested. Any ideas please? Many thanks.

Hi,

I understand your concerns but you should get an x-ray chest for your daughter to find out what is causing the pain. Also I suggest that she gets a CBC done as she might be suffering of anemia.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Salah Saad Shoman
