Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My 2-year-old baby is not yet walking properly. While walking, her body shakes and she falls down. I started doing massage using Ayurveda. Please suggest any remedy for my baby.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Do not worry, I read your query and understood your concern.

You cannot fix the exact age for a child to start walking. Every child is different. She will certainly walk soon. Massage her legs with Ksheerabala oil (Bala, Ksheera, Taila) This is an excellent oil for improving muscle strength in children. There is an excellent ayurveda nutritional supplement called Manoll syrup (Amalaki, Honey, Ashwagandha, Yashtimadhu). Give one teaspoon of this tonic twice daily before food. She will start walking in no time. These medicines are available in ayurveda stores.

Hope I have clarified your query. I will be happy to help you further.

Thank you.
