Growth

Low Weight Gain in Children

Low weight gain in children, also known as failure to thrive (FTT), is a condition where a child's weight gain is less than expected, resulting in a lower-than-expected weight for their age and height.

Reasons Behind Low Weight Gain

1. Poor nutrition
2. Inadequate caloric intake
3. Malabsorption (e.g., celiac disease, cystic fibrosis)
4. Chronic illnesses (e.g., diarrhea, vomiting)
5. Genetic disorders (e.g., Down syndrome)
6. Hormonal imbalances (e.g., growth hormone deficiency)
7. Psychosocial factors (e.g., neglect, poverty)

Standard Weight as proposed by WHO

The World Health Organization (WHO) provides growth charts to track children's weight and height. The standards are based on the following percentiles:

1. Underweight: <3rd percentile
2. Normal weight: 3rd-85th percentile
3. Overweight: 85th-95th percentile
4. Obese: >95th percentile

Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URTI)

Upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) are a common issue in children, and it's essential to understand the causes, risk factors, and preventive measures to keep them healthy.

What are Upper Respiratory Tract Infections?

Upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) refer to illnesses that affect the nose, sinuses, pharynx, larynx, or trachea. These infections are characterized by symptoms like cough, nasal congestion and discharge, sore throat, and sneezing ¹. Common URTIs include the common cold, epiglottitis, tonsillitis, rhinitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis, sinusitis, and otitis media.

Why are Children Vulnerable to Urti?

Children are more prone to URTIs due to their immature immune system, increased exposure to pathogens, and poor hygiene . Other factors that contribute to their vulnerability include:

Anatomical factors: Children have smaller airways, making them more susceptible to respiratory infections.

Environmental factors: Exposure to pollutants, smoke, and allergens can weaken their immune system.

Risk Factors

Some children are more at risk of developing URTIs, including:

• Premature babies
• Children under 5 years old
• Those with chronic illnesses(e.g., asthma, diabetes)
• Weakened immune system
• Exposure to pollutants
• Preventive Measures
To reduce the risk of URTIs in children:
• Practice good hygiene
• Avoid close contact with infected individuals
• Stay up-to-date on vaccinations
• Maintain a healthy diet
• Exercise regularly
• Get adequate sleep

Homeopathy Management

While homeopathic remedies are not a replacement for conventional medical treatment, some studies suggest they can be effective in preventing and treating URTIs.

However, it's crucial to consult a qualified homeopathic practitioner before administering any remedies.Would you like to know more about homeopathic remedies or preventive measures for URTIs in children? then consult us today itself.
