The milk sensitivities are common to many homeopathic remedies, particularly those often given to young children (eg. sulphur, pulsatilla, lycopodium, calc carb, natrum muriaticum, tuberculinum, medorrhinum, stramonium, baryta carb, nux vomica, ignatia, etc. etc.) It isn't an important symptom, but it should figure in the remedy selected to treat the child. It's clear he is a very sensitive child altogether, but foods can easily set him off as well as other things (pain, for example, as with the teething).

After treating the child with the homeopathic remedy, that food sensitivity disappears anyway, so there is really no need to alter the diet. Other sensitivies--eg. to pain, to emotional stimuli--should all become better handled after the remedy.

Finding a good local homeopath who loves to work with children and has many pediatric patients is the best start.
