What Causes Low Appetite And Tiredness?
My son is 2 years old and to me he looks pale lately, he is not a big eater we have to force him but i think he eats enough for his age and we feed him healthy. He has energy but at times seems tired. The eyes look a bit tired to me. Can you please help.

HI as per your query,Pallor may be due to decreased hemoglobin in the blood which decrease his oxygen carrying to all body parts .This will make him easily tired and weak.Please get his Hb checked and consult a child specialist who will examine him and start on Iron syrup as required.Please give plenty of veggies fruits and lean meat/liver if he likes.Hope this is helpful for you
