Syrups will do nothing neither your pressure or punishment will work. You can start rewarding the child when he doesn’t eat these things. You can give him syp zentel 2 tsf once every 6 months till age of 5
please share cbc
deworm the child if not done in last 6 months
and book an appointment for further information
