I'm really concerned about my 9-month-old son. He's had these carry bags, or puffiness, under his eyes since he was born. We went to a local clinic today, and the doctor mentioned a few possible issues that have me worried. He said it could be related to his kidneys, allergies, or that his growth isn't quite right. Can you help me understand what might be going on here and what steps we should take next?

For delayed periods, weight gain, acne, and hair fall, consider Ayurvedic treatments like:
- Shatavari or Ashoka for hormonal balance
- Triphala for digestive health and weight management
- Neem or Turmeric for acne and skin issues
- Bhringaraj or Amla for hair fall
Consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance. Homeopathic remedies like Pulsatilla or Sepia may also be helpful, but consult a homeopathic doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

my son had TB and just had intestine surgery should I get the whole family checked for TB too
Yes, it's highly recommended to get the whole family tested for TB. Since your son had intestinal TB, which is usually not contagious, it's still a good idea to get the family checked, especially if your son had active TB in the lungs or throat. People with active TB are most likely to spread it to close contacts, including family members. If your son had pulmonary or laryngeal TB, there's a higher risk of transmission to household members. If your son had abdominal TB, which is less likely to spread, testing family members is still a good precaution
