IF YOUR CHILD IS ALLERGIC TO FOR LONG TIME IT FAVOURS TOWARDS MILK PROTEIN REACTION AS THEY ARE ANIMAL PROTEINS AND ANIMAL PROTEINS ARE NOT COMPETIBLE WITH HUMAN PROTEINS
THE INHALERS CAN ALSO CAUSE
BUT IF PERSON IS NOT ACCEPTING ANIMAL PROTEIN IT CAN ALSO WEAKEN TH BONE CARTILAGE
IF YOU WITHDRAW MILK AND DIARY PROTEINS FROM DIET AND ADD VEGETABLE PROTEINS HE MIGHT REVERSE WITH SYMPTOMPS I HAVE TREATED MANY PATIENTS LIKE THIS
GET ALSO BLOOD SERUM TESTED FOR SPECIFIC ANTIBODIES FOR FOOD YOU DAILY TAKE AND WITHDRAW 3 WK AFTER WITHDRAWL HE WILL START RECOVERING
FOR THAT TIME DD ANTIALLERICS LIKE MONTELUCAST 10 MG TDS
BRONCHODILATOR SYP AND INHALERS INSTAED OG STEROID THIS WILL WORK
AND AFTER WITHDRAWL OF FOOD EFFECT COMES NO RECURENCES
