Dr. Khan Lamia Nahid

Dr. Khan Lamia Nahid is an Associate Professor of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. She completed her MBBS from Dhaka Medical College and pursued postgraduate qualifications with FCPS in Pediatrics and MD in Pediatric Gastroenterology. Her specialty focuses on digestive, liver and nutritional problems affecting children at different stages of growth.

Pediatric gastroenterology covers complaints such as recurrent abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation and feeding difficulties. Children with jaundice, liver disorders or suspected gastrointestinal diseases may also need specialist assessment. Nutrition is another part of this field, particularly when poor weight gain, inadequate nutrition or feeding problems are affecting a child's development.

A child's digestive symptoms can have many possible causes. Persistent diarrhea, for example, may be linked to infection, food intolerance or another underlying disorder. Similarly, repeated abdominal pain may require a closer look when it continues or interferes with normal activities. Depending on the symptoms, the doctor may review growth patterns, dietary habits and previous test results.

Dr. Khan Lamia Nahid is associated with Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University in Dhaka, where her chamber is listed. Her academic position as an Associate Professor complements her specialist work in pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition. Parents bringing a child for consultation can carry previous prescriptions, laboratory reports, imaging results and relevant growth records.
