Will Multivitamins Help In Curing Prolonged Symptoms Of Cold In A Child?
My son is 12 and having an obvious growth advance. He s sick with cold symptoms and it s been a week. I m certain it s the rapid growth. My 16 yr old son went through this a few years ago and stayed horribly ill for 6 weeks! I do not want another son to go through the same thing. I know I m not imagining it. It s too similar. What extra vitamins does he need? Calcium? Iron?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is physiological phenomenon and genetically decided and controlled nothing can stop this or facilitate this, no medicine or vitamins or minerals would work here and this is nothing to worry because this is may not be disease, still you can have opinion from genetic medicine department, take care.
