Hi,

Thank you for your query.

You mentioned that your daughter is having a problem for the past one year. How is her weight? Has she lost any weight? If all the reports and her weight are normal then you need not worry. If she is not gaining adequate weight then further management shall be required.

Some children at this age do catch upper respiratory tract infection frequently which is very normal as they are building their immunity. I would suggest that you provide her proper nutrition and some nutritional supplements to help build her immunity.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your daughter an early recovery.

Regards,
