Patient's question:
These days, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. How should I handle it if a child has one bowel movement a week?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be due to deficiency of fluids in the intestines, leading to dryness and lack of moisture in the intestines, impaired function of peristalsis, and a syndrome primarily characterized by dry and hard stools, difficulty in defecation, and symptoms of fluid deficiency. It is also known as the syndrome of fluid deficiency in the large intestine. Excessive internal heat in the intestines can be treated with Bian Nai Tong Cha. It may be caused by poor intestinal absorption, requiring oral administration of Shen Ling Jian Pi Granules. It is important to strengthen nutrition, avoid picky eating, and drink more bone broth. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold foods that are irritating.
