Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 5 year old son has a bad tummy at least every few weeks, his poo is mostly yellow or clay like in consistancy.. he does have a varied diet but is never very hungry or that interested in food. He complains of a tummy ache... but loves top drink milk... any ideas do you think he may have an allergy to food or should we get a blood test to check organ functions..?
Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
If I were your treating doctor I would concentrate more on his growth and development and daily activities than on the food. But drinking excess milk as diet will lead on to anaemia and is not advisable. This is a food fad and is not suggestive of food allergy. Kindly get him evaluated by your paediatrician.
