Patient's question:
It has already started adding side dishes, but it's not drinking properly since it began. It has been like this until now, at 2 years and 8 months old, and it has never eaten dinner properly. When it comes to snacks, he eats a little even if we let him, and it doesn't matter whether they are soft or hard. Sometimes he eats one meal a day, sometimes two, and he doesn't eat much either. It's driving me crazy. He is a bit deficient in calcium among the trace elements. His spirits are normal, but he is a bit short in height.Past treatment and effectiveness: He has never eaten dinner properly since he was a child until now.
What kind of help is needed: What should I do? We have tried many different appetite-stimulating medications at home, but none of them have worked. Sigh.
Doctor's answer:
The phenomenon of a two-year-old child not eating is a sign that the child may have poor digestion and a weak spleen and stomach, which needs to be treated. It is recommended to take some Jianpi Granules appropriately for treatment.Advice: The supplementary food should also be diversified. You can try calcium and zinc supplements for two weeks. Additionally, taking the child outdoors for activities more often can help with digestion and absorption.
The above is the advice for the question "What should I do if my 2-year-8-month-old child doesn't eat?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
