Can pediatric massage treat bacterial infections?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. Can pediatric massage therapy treat bacterial infections?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, if it is a bacterial infection, antibiotic treatment is needed. You can also combine it with Tui Zhi therapy to enhance immunity, supplement nutrients and trace elements, and avoid harmful stimuli.
First, consider that the condition may be caused by a gastrointestinal inflammation due to cold. It is recommended to check the stool and blood to identify the pathogen and receive corresponding treatment. If the child cannot eat at all, another possibility to consider is gastroesophageal reflux disease. This usually requires an endoscopy examination. It is best to visit a pediatric gastroenterology department for a definitive diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
