A child with food stagnation and fever may continue for several days.

Patient's question:

The patient's body temperature has been around 37.8, only drinking formula milk, not eating much, only drinking about 300 ml in the evening. They didn't sleep until midnight last night. Yesterday morning, their bowel movement was dry, but after taking medicine at noon, it became loose in the evening, containing thick stool. The day before yesterday at noon, the patient was sick...

Doctor's answer:

Your child's condition is likely caused by indigestion. You can give them Chen Gong Zai Xin to reduce fever. Indigestion is mainly caused by an inappropriate dietary structure, poor eating habits, and other factors. It can also be caused by a lack of zinc. Your child's diet should include more vegetables and fruits, and meat and eggs should be consumed in adequate amounts. Overconsumption can put pressure on the gastrointestinal tract, leading to poor digestion and absorption. It is important not to be picky about food, and try to establish a regular bowel movement schedule. When symptoms recur, you can use Xiao'er Jian Pi San, Xiao'er Jian Wei Xiao Shi Pian, and gastrokinetic drugs. Additionally, you can supplement with gluconate of zinc and multivitamin tablets. Pay attention to keeping your child warm to prevent them from catching a cold. Wishing your family happiness.
