Brief Answer:
Low immune system
Detailed Answer:
Hi, welcome to HCM. Can understand your concerns.
If child has history of frequent fever episodes, teeth grinding suggests that the child has decreased immune system.
Teeth grinding can also be due to worms infestation.
Give multivitamin syrup 5 ml once a day for 1 month. Deworming with albendazole should be done.
Kindly do complete blood count, stool routine microscopy test.
Give diet rich in protein and fat like full cream milk, egg, paneer, cheese, non veg diet, dry fruits. In fruits give apple, XXXXXXX and banana.
Review with report.
Take care.
