Suggest Treatment For Loss Appetite After Treated Cold And Cough
Hi My kid is 1.5 years old. About 10 days back he had a bad viral fever and had cough and cold. Now he has recovered and is back to his normal active self since past 5 days. But it seems post that fever his appetite has taken a hit. More so his affection towards milk. He used to love milk but now he just does not want to have it at all anymore. Please suggest. - Siddharth
Hi thank you for choosing healthcare magic. After any illness kids take atleast two weeks to regain their previous weight and appetite. So after any illness we recommend two extra meals apart from their regular ones. Some times they may have aversion to some foods afterwards. If he is not taking milk substitute it with other milk products like curd, cheese, paneer etc and see that gets his daily quota of diary products. Hope this has been helpful to you, kindly feel free to contact again for any queries. Kindly rate the answer if so. Take care. Dr J Sravanthi,
