It's been over 3 years since I wrote my last blog on this site and I even forgot about it! My son is now a little under six. We are also in a different city now. He is studying in 1st grade now. He's been suffering from cough for quite some time. We tried several doctors before going to this pediatrician. He examined my son meticulously, I'd never seen any doctor examining so thoroughly - he asked my son to open his mouth wide and saw inside, he inspected his ears, tapped on his chest, back, stomach etc.
In the end, this doctor declared that there was nothing wrong with my son after seeing the blood report and the X ray. However, prescribed some tablets which we later found out to be humble calcium doses. However, he was very serious when prescribing these. He did not address me or my wife, he looked at my son and told him to abstain from all junk food and candies and to stick to home cooked food. Else, the doc told my son, he would be constrained to injecting in his throat. I am not sure that my son believed that. Anyway, let me hope the cough disappears.
