Hi Dear,
Welcome to the HCM
Detailed Investigation like CBC, ESR, MX TEST URINE EXAM, CXR etc to be done to rule out any subtle infection.
Hand to mouth hygiene is quite important.
Deworming to be done,
Regular iron and multivitamin syrups to be given,
Balanced diet more proteins to be given.
Avoid junk food from outside.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
