Is Surgery For Blocked Tear Duct Safe In A Weak 2.5 Year Old?

Hi,I want to ask about my 2.5year old son,initially he was very healthy as my other two but after crossing one year he turned into a weak skinny with very feeble bodied child having very often stomach issues, there are often white spots in his nails his teeth are also having brown holes in them I don t know why he has much pale complexion although he is still on breast feed,more over he has blocked tear vein n doctor suggests surgery with full anesthesia n we hesitate as he is already so weak with poor resistance.please consider and suggest for him.thank u

Hi, do not worry, the surgery is safe for your baby, it is important that you have it in pediatric control to be sure if you have a good weight gain and size
