Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I understand your concerns but don't worry. Your son seems to be suffering from allergic tendency. I would recommend you to start him on montelukast once daily for 2-3 months. This will improve his allergic tendency.
Hold the calcium, iron and magnovit syrups if your child is not having deficiency. A healthy diet and lifestyle is the best long-term health secret.
Hopefully it will be of help.
Take care
