Question My otherwise 18 months old is fair except for his lower back and his legs. I use johnsons soap and powder for him. What can I do to remove his tan naturally.Also he is a fussy eater. Is there any hunger evoking syrup that u can prescribe that may help his appetite
Answer what you feel as tan , is likely to be soem kind of normal nrown fat that is called as mongoloid spots. it will be more clear ifu send a pic of it. mot such spots disappear by ag 2-3 yr as the skin overlying starts getting thicker.
in fussy eaters, rule out tonsils and constipation. also read some feeding tips at www.infantfeeding.blogspot.com
if teh growth and milestones are normal, i wont recommend any appetisers. theer are may such drugs are available but are not recommended routinely. your doc may give some multivitamin or aminoacid supplements or some meds like say cyproheptadine.
