My son is 2.5 years old and has developed a cancerous tumour between the rectum and urinary bladder. He has been undergoing chemotherapy due to which he has become very weak and cannot stand for long time and cannot walk. Could I give him gokshura for developing muscle strength and if yes what should be the dosage?

It's very difficult looking after someone with a malignancy in family. More strength to you. Fatigue or weakness maybe due to the cancer itself or the side-effects of chemotherapy. Usually, the child is advised to take good diet and adequate water and rest. Certain dietary restriction s maybe necessary. Kindly consult your oncologist about gokshura.

I don't think there is any role of goksutra it's ayurvadic medicine of himalaya role not proved. Better I giv high protein diet. Protein powder.
