Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I'm not aware of a cure but you may benefit from visiting an allergen specialist maybe? They can test him for why this is the case and perhaps find a type of spice he can take like black or green pepper or a cure for it. We wish you luck.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Pediatricians in Islamabad and seek in-person advice.
