How to nourish children with poor spleen and stomach

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How can children with poor spleen and stomach health be nurtured?

Doctor's answer:

The stomach has strong digestive ability but poor absorption function. Strictly speaking, it falls under the category of disharmony between the stomach and spleen. It is important to avoid raw, cold, greasy, and irritating foods. Additionally, emotional regulation should be paid attention to, as the condition generally improves quickly. However, do not expect Western medicine to help with this condition. It has no effect.
At around 2-3 months, the baby can be held upright. This is also an indicator to assess whether the baby may be calcium-deficient. Other signs, such as the baby rolling over or sucking their thumb, are important indicators of healthy development. When holding the baby upright, it is essential to support their neck to prevent cervical spine injury. You can also try holding the baby upside down, with their back against your chest. Use one hand to support their hips while wrapping the other arm around them from the armpits. This way, the baby's vision is broadened without causing cervical spine damage!
