Son is 7 years old with dwarfism, malnutrition and poor absorption, what should I do?

Patient's question:

The medicine was taken. No return for reexamination. In a year, his height has increased, but he is still thin and short. What kind of assistance is needed: "How can you help him refine and grow taller?"

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you clarify this. Based on the symptoms, it's possible that your child may have poor nutrient digestion and absorption due to a weak spleen and stomach, leading to a lean body. It's recommended to start by regulating the spleen and stomach, using remedies that strengthen the spleen, improve appetite, and aid digestion, such as Shanmai Jianpi Koufuye. It's also advised to enhance your child's nutrition, ensuring a balanced, scientific, and comprehensive diet. Avoid a meat deficiency or picky eating, and include more calcium-rich foods. Regular exercise and activity are also beneficial.
