Patient's question:
3, 4 years old, girl, eating and drinking well, just much shorter than her peers, don't know the reasonDoctor's answer:
Hello, from your above situation, it is considered that developmental delay is mainly due to two reasons: congenital deficiency and neglect in later life. Generally, congenital factors are difficult to change and require postnatal regulation. In traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen and stomach are considered the foundation of postnatal health. It is recommended to use some Chinese herbal medicines that strengthen the spleen and invigorate qi for regulation. Additionally, in terms of diet, you can eat some Chinese yam and coix seed, both of which have the effect of strengthening the spleen. The key is still to maintain a balanced and nutritious diet in daily life, and it is best to avoid snacks.
