[|Human|] Our three year old grandson has had Reflux problem and is on medication for it for more than two years now. He is 3 ft tall and weighs 11.5kgs. He is a very fussy eater . Could you suggest some thing to improve his appetite? And is his weight and height OK for his age? We are Asians.
[|AI|]  Hi, your grandson seems to have the correct weight and height in spite of being a fussy eater --he is a fussy eater because of his reflux. When food that he eats squirts back into his throat or food pipe it produces a subjective uneasiness and pain, sometimes a burning sensation if there is acid in the refluxed food. He has been on treatment you say ---may be antacids given for too long a time. I suggest that it's time to have a pediatric Gastroenterologist see him. He may ask for an endoscope if the symptoms are severe.Moreover, antacids should not be given for prolonged periods in child Chat Doctor.
