Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.

Please give him typhoid vaccination after 2 years of age.

Try to see that he does not have food items bought out side from the shops. He should have home made food prepared under hygienic conditions.

Give him a balanced diet rich in protein and vitamins.

See that food items are protected from flies etc.

Hope this helps.
Take care.

Home food / soft bland diet (intestinal ulcers) / sterile water (boiled) / personal hygiene of all at home / avoiding non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs - help

Proper drug in full course will ensure complete cure
