Suggest Treatment For Food Allergy In A Toddler

Hi, I am having 2 year old son. Since his birth he is having allergies for some food. For example now I gave him pediasure. After 2 hours he started to vomit and vomiting continuously about 11/2 hrs. Why it is happening? Actually he didnt gain weight for about 6 months. So his pediatrician asked me to give pediasure. why he is having this allergy prob for some food. When he can eat all food like other children. How to cure this problem?

Hi,
Bringing up kids is tough and if they have food allergy then the problem doubles. Usually such allergies are common to milk and its products. If you've been giving him milk all since then i would suggest you skip to some other foods. As he is 2 already, start him on the regular food you eat. Make sure you repeat each food for three days, check for any symptoms and proceed. It is always good to have a diary for your boy's food habits. Note down all allergic foods and stop feeding those to him.
Hope it was helpful.
