Patient's question:
[Have been drinking formula milk for 3 years now, and now she drinks very little. She eats very little, only drinking some rice porridge. She has never eaten any meat, vegetables, or eggs since she was a child and almost doesn't eat them. She vomits almost every time she tries, and occasionally she can eat some egg white. Past treatment and effectiveness: Liquid medicine and digestion pills have been used. What kind of help do you want: Is it medication or am I doing something wrong? I feel like such a failure as a mother that I can't even realize my mistakes.]Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your child is experiencing this, it's important to be alert to potential zinc deficiency. It's necessary to have your child undergo a trace element check. For treatment, using Sanjing Brand Gluconate Zinc Oral Liquid is recommended. If your child shows signs of poor appetite and picky eating, pay attention to whether it's related to zinc deficiency, abnormal digestive function, or long-term consumption of foods high in dyes and flavorings, which may have raised their taste threshold. Do something about it; otherwise, this could lead to severe malnutrition.
