You can start Nutrilite Kids protein drink (any flavor) in place of any chocolate drink which you are using as of now.
This drink is all the essential elements which required for proper growth in natural form like our food.
The available drinks in markets are chemically synthesized so they wont give proper results.
I am 100% confident that he will recover very soon but don’t expect any miracle in 1-2 months.
You will definitely fill some difference after 2-3 months and significant different after 6 months.
If any other information which you need to share as baby’s weight is very less so please mail me on bharat80_shah@yahoo.com

hi welcome,
neck x-ray is advised
1-to check any spina bifida which leads to pain and reduce intake of food.
2-to check any primary complex over that area
thanking you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Your baby is grossly underweight. Consult paediatrician and get your baby examined and let the doctor decide the investigations to be done to reach a diagnosis and start proper treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Swapnendu Sekhar Ghosh
