Question: For some days, children are falling sick frequently, parents think that this is happening after Corona, is this true?
Answer: Corona is not the cause of frequent illness of all children. Every year in certain seasons such cases come before us. Children get sick when there is even a slight change in the weather. The reason behind getting sick is more after rain. Along with this, the cases of illness also increase in September, October, November and December. After this it starts to decrease a little. After this, cases of infection among children are increasing from April.
Question: Is the immune system or virus the reason behind the illness?
Answer : Parents have a wrong belief about their children, that their child's immune system is weak. This is not necessary in the case of every child. If the child is getting sick again and again, it means that there is some kind of infection in him, so it is not necessary that the infection does not occur again after getting infected once.
On the other hand, the risk of infection is always higher among school-going children. Children meet, play, eat with other children at school, due to which if one child gets infected, the virus can easily be transferred to another child. This child will bring the infection home from school and pass it on to their siblings.
Question: Corona is responsible for the child's illness or not?
Answer: Yes, in some cases you can understand this. Due to Corona, contact with children has decreased for two years. Children are staying at home, instead of playing outside, they are composing and digesting on their mobile phones. In such a condition, their ability to fight the virus is reduced. Children cannot tolerate pollution, allergy problems started. Children will continue to have this type of problem for a year or two after they come out of isolation.
Question: If it is known that the child's immune system is really weak, then what can be done to cure it without medicine?

Question: Is it necessary for children to drink milk?
Answer: It is necessary to drink milk only for six months after birth. In the first six months we cannot give the baby anything other than milk. After that we start feeding the baby. This is a natural pattern and is also appropriate, so children should get used to eating cereals and other foods. If your child drinks even a glass of milk throughout the day, there is no harm in that.
Question: Parents often feel that if the baby does not drink milk, there will be many problems, so they often add chocolate powder to the milk, is it beneficial?
Answer: If the baby likes to drink milk, parents start giving milk at all three times. Some parents even say that don't eat, drink milk and go to sleep. All these methods are wrong. Every time you feed milk, you will be adding sugar to it, which will harm the baby. If you are mixing chocolate powder or other flavors with it, it will also contain sugar. In this way babies get unnatural things with milk, which are harmful.
Question: Parents will say that if milk is not given, where will the child get calcium?
