Patient's question:
What should I do if my 1.5-year-old child recently doesn't like to eat and only drinks milk, not knowing why? It's been more than a week, and they haven't eaten dinner much lately. Today, they haven't eaten at all. A few days ago, they could still eat an egg, but now they won't eat anything. What kind of assistance should I seek: What should I do?Doctor's answer:
In such cases, it is not only related to the child's personality and habits, but also to their physical nutritional status, such as deficiencies or imbalances in trace elements, especially calcium, iron, and zinc.Advice: Communicate more with the child, teach them patiently, and avoid resorting to physical force to resolve their issues. Additionally, you can take the child to the hospital for a thorough check-up of trace elements.
Doctor's question: When you mention drinking milk, are you referring to dairy products or breastfeeding?
