What is the reason for the child's thinness and poor appetite?

Patient's question:

But the height is only 82 cm and the weight is 11 kg, and the child doesn't eat much. What's going on? When the child was young, they had diarrhea after drinking my milk. It's been about 10 months. Is it because they drank my milk when they were young? The child is so big but hasn't grown much.
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No specific treatment has been given.
Help provided: Given good responses. Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to carefully check for the possibility of zinc deficiency and digestive problems. Consider taking oral zinc gluconate and Jianpi oral liquid to see if it helps. To make the child eat well, it is also important to pay attention to the method. Some children have picky eating habits, and parents become very anxious. To coax the child to eat dinner, some parents use toys to distract them during meals. Others let the child play while eating... Excessive indulgence by parents and a lack of understanding of proper feeding methods are also direct causes of children's picky eating.
