Patient's question:
Age of onset and symptom description: The child doesn't like to eat and doesn't like meat, only likes to eat some cucumbers. The child is too thin now and also likes to touch their hair. What's going on?History of treatment and effectiveness: No treatment has been given, and it has always been like this.
Help desired: Teach the child to like everything and become fatter.
Doctor's answer:
The child is too thin due to insufficient nutritional intake.The child's poor appetite should be considered likely caused by zinc deficiency-induced anorexia, and zinc deficiency can also lead to yellow hair.
1. Use gluconate zinc tablets to supplement zinc for the child to improve digestive function.
2. If necessary, check for trace elements to rule out the possibility of high blood lead. If high blood lead is indeed present, use Qizi oral liquid for lead excretion.
3. If the child's tongue is thick, use lactobacillus, lactase, or pepsin oral solution to promote digestion, or use Huaji oral liquid to treat indigestion and eliminate food stagnation.
