Patient's question:
I don't know if he has this condition, and his mental state isn't good either. May I ask if a seven-month-old baby can eat sweet potatoes?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can eat. You can use a spoon to scrape steamed sweet potatoes for the baby to eat, or mash the sweet potatoes into a puree to feed the baby. However, it's important to feed them in moderation. Eating sweet potatoes is beneficial for the baby, especially when introducing solid foods, as it can help prevent constipation and other issues. If the baby frequently struggles with bowel movements, adding some coarse grains can make it easier to produce stool. Based on the information you provided, it is possible that the baby may have facial paralysis. Facial paralysis is a common condition in pediatric neurology. This situation can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, such as Qian Zheng San combined with acupuncture. Generally, the prognosis is good.
