Contrary to common belief,oil massage has no extra health benefits except maybe relaxation. A good healthy balanced diet and plenty of physical activity and hygiene in feeds are more important for a healthy growth. Stop bottle feeding and breastfeeding if given,give just 2 milk feeds using a glass and 4 solid meals a day including curd and Banana in the diet.
