Patient's question:
My child is two and a half years old. Their height and weight are not up to standard. They love to sweat and don't like to drink water. They are picky eaters and don't like vegetables. Their hair is a bit yellow.Treatment history and effectiveness: Checked at the hospital, calcium is not deficient.
What kind of help is needed: What needs to be supplemented, and what should be paid attention to daily.
Doctor's answer:
Considering the issue of insufficient qi and yin, it is directly related to the spleen and stomach. It is recommended that you consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. It is essential to maintain a balanced diet. If your child is picky about food and avoids meat, it is crucial to address this issue early on. Otherwise, if left uncorrected over time, insufficient daily nutrient intake can have a very negative impact on your child's intellectual and physical development. Eat more seasonal vegetables and fruits, drink plenty of water, and consume fish, shrimp, meat, and eggs in moderation to provide high-quality protein. Appropriately increase outdoor activity time to promote intestinal peristalsis, enhance appetite, and aid digestion.
