Na wa oooo. What kind parent will openly compare his son to Fido Dido?

Anyway, what you need is a sound medical advice, and I don't think Nairaland is the best place because they will follow you yab him further.

Try see a dietitian/Nutritionist first. I pray it's just a minor issue that can be corrected with proper feeding regime.

Hi guys, please I really need your help.

I have a twelve years old son who is very lanky, he looks d*mn too malnourished for comfort. He was very robust from birth till around the age of 8, when all of a sudden he started depreciating, initially, we thought it was a normal thing, as he was growing taller too, but now, I can't even bring myself to post his pictures on my status. He looks just like 7up's Fido Dido.

Now, this is a boy who eats whatever he wants, he's well fed, and lacks nothing. But with his looks, you will doubt that he's even fed at all. Although he looks far from being healthy, but he rarely falls sick. He's so skiny that whoever sees him, asks us what's wrong with him. Another thing, he always leaves his mouth opened, something that has now affected his teeth. We tried every tricks in the book to stop this, but to no avail, he can hardly keep his lips shut for more than 30 seconds.

Now, he's is a very hyperactive boy and finds it difficult concentrating atimes, but he's well above average in school.

Kindly help with solutions to this problem, it brings tears to my eyes as we have done everything we can think of to reverse this. Recently, a doctor suggested we place him on egg regimen, he now eats 3 eggs daily, but there seems to be no changes whatsoever.
Recommended medications, specialist or hospital we can take him to, preferably in the South West would be highly appreciated.

He's my only child, please help a desperate father!!!🥺

Ops,

Your child might be suffering from Addison's disease (adrenal insufficiency) – This condition causes insufficient secretion of hormones from the adrenal cortex, which can cause weight loss
I am not by any stretch of imagination giving you a definitive diagnosis of your son’s medical condition.,
But it’s important that you see a pediatrician who’s experienced with this type of cases, possibly in a university college hospital where you have different professionals.
I am sorry about your situation. As a father, I know it must be really difficult for you.
A proper diagnosis is essential. Once he’s properly diagnosed, then the right treatment or management plan can be administered. He’ll be okay eventually.

Another reason to give birth to more than one child as an African, as anything can take the child; war, sickness, accident, etc..

Refer to traditional checkup/treatment, I don't think it's a medical problem...

He is breathing from his mouth that's why he can't close them. A clear sign of enlarged Adenoids which in turn is causing a severe shortage of oxygen at the normal levels required for proper mental and physical development.

Pls. Consult a pediatrician ASAP

Heartless people are too much in this forum, why would people make of someone looking for help for a child, some thing much be wrong with the boy for him to look malnourished, lost weight even when he's well fed.

You should be more worried that he keeps his mouth open always.
Whatever that has made him to keep his mouth open is making him have very high metabolism.

Visit the pediatrician immediately.

Whilst he might be eating alot, ensure he's taking enough proteins and omega fatty acids. Too much junk these days.
I believe he is otherwise well.
Ensure he's not being bullied in school too. If he's undergoing any form of abuse, he could emaciate and become clumsy too like you suggested

I’ m no medical doctor, but if you have taken him to a GP, and they have run tests and they found there is nothing fundamentally wrong with Him, then just be patient, it might just be a phase in His development.

Just keep on nourishing Him and showing him live.

Wishing you the very best.

EDIT: I meant to say “showing Him *LOVE ❤️ “

There is hardly a living thing that does not need or responds positively to love.

I doubt there's anything wrong with your son, at most you or your wife come from a family with tall people. Just take him to a good hospital for complete medical evaluation to clear all doubts then I'll suggest you look up Tom Brown then be preparing it like custard for him to drink regularly. You can add dried dates to the other ingredients before grinding as a sweetener. I'm sure you give him multivitamins regularly so if the hospital says he's okay, you'll just have to channel his stature into sports like basketball.

Ps, have you consulted a dietician/nutritionist ?

When last did you deworm him?
The egg regimen is ok but try mixing alot of raw egg in the grounded beans to make moi moi. Do the first like 6 months. Don't boil the eggs and cut,just mix the raw egg in the grounded beans before steaming/ boiling.
If you can afford it,give a lot of rich tea with enough milk. Then again,he's not too young to try doing some little power exercises like pushups and lifting some little weights under your guidance,o...that will make him build muscles and bones. Try these.

There may be influx of parasite in his system.... Check online for the kind parasite that may have such negative effects on human.

It may also be hormonal issue or some kinds of allergy..... Get w doctor that can study him over a period time. Have close watch on him and document his daily activities over a period of time maybe you will notice a n unusual pattern of behaviour or reactions.

I understand your pains. God will intervene.

For seven years I was carrying my son from one place to the othe but thank God today, he's a delight.

Desperate father, stop asking for what is not lost.
From all you have said nothing is wrong with your boy. I have a boy like that, and he is healthy and rarely fall sick. But no one dare question why he is skinny. Is he their son? I protect him from harassment, embarrassment and bully from his mates and adults alike.
It is your responsibility to love him. And let him know you are proud of his stature and you are happy with him.
Let me ask you, which will you prefer, a boy that is overnight and you go to hospital every month or your lanky that rarely fall sick.
My son is 9 years old now and we have never slept a night in an hospital from his birth.
There are medical diagnosis to check if there is any issue with his organs or systems. And if there is no issue , medically, at aleast for now, what are you worried?
Please I beg you, don't let that boy lose his self esteem. Its bad that he will go to school daily and meet his mates trying to bully him. If you as his father is ashamed to post his picture, you are killing the young man for no just cause.
Go home. Stop making him become fat. Just live hi for who he is. Stop pressurising him to eat Love him for who he is
He may become fatter, he may not, but he is not less human. Treat him with respect and dignity he deserves.
God bless your family.

Hi guys, please I really need your help.

I have a twelve years old son who is very lanky, he looks d*mn too malnourished for comfort. He was very robust from birth till around the age of 8, when all of a sudden he started depreciating, initially, we thought it was a normal thing, as he was growing taller too, but now, I can't even bring myself to post his pictures on my status. He looks just like 7up's Fido Dido.

Now, this is a boy who eats whatever he wants, he's well fed, and lacks nothing. But with his looks, you will doubt that he's even fed at all. Although he looks far from being healthy, but he rarely falls sick. He's so skiny that whoever sees him, asks us what's wrong with him. Another thing, he always leaves his mouth opened, something that has now affected his teeth. We tried every tricks in the book to stop this, but to no avail, he can hardly keep his lips shut for more than 30 seconds.

Now, he's is a very hyperactive boy and finds it difficult concentrating atimes, but he's well above average in school.

Kindly help with solutions to this problem, it brings tears to my eyes as we have done everything we can think of to reverse this. Recently, a doctor suggested we place him on egg regimen, he now eats 3 eggs daily, but there seems to be no changes whatsoever.
Recommended medications, specialist or hospital we can take him to, preferably in the South West would be highly appreciated.

He's my only child, please help a desperate father!!!🥺

I see nothing wrong here. Next year, you’ll come here to complain that he’s started eating past your salary. Let the boy live. So far he’s physically healthy, that’s all which matters.
