Hello, Did it start recently or aggravate during this hot climate? Is she taking enough water? Is there cracks around her lips? You can apply raktachandanadi taila externally after diluting it with coconut oil. Does the child also has any weakness? Guduchyadi kashayam 5 ml diluted in 60 ml luke warm water will also be beneficial twice daily before food. Include more milk and yoghurt in her diet. If you are not vegetarian eggs and organ meat like liver is also a good supplement of vit B12 and iron supporting and preventing any nutrient deficiencies. If the pigmentation is spreading or their is pigmentation inside her mouth it will become necessary to access A CBC,VIT B12,and iron

Mix 2-3 drops of the raktachand tailam with coconut oil and gentle massage on the pigmented area. Keep a watch on the sugar levels. Avoid bakery products and biscuits. Include foods rich in Vitamin B12 such as meat and fish and fresh tumeric roots.
