Pediatrician, Neurology 's  Response
For a 7 yr old kid, the weight gain is inadequate and he falls sick frequently; all along he had many viral, parasitic as well bacterial infections. Hygiene is very important in hand washing, toilets as well eating and drinking habits. I suggest screening for TB and proper clinical examination including blood tests and ultra sound test of the abdomen are needed. A proper dietician help would warrant for appropriate calories and protein intake for him.
