Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Child anorexia refers to a long-term loss of appetite or disappearance of appetite, with reduced food intake as the main symptom. It is a chronic digestive dysfunction syndrome and a common and frequently occurring disease in pediatrics, most commonly seen in children aged 1-6, with an increasing trend year by year. Severe cases can lead to malnutrition, anemia, rickets, and low immunity, resulting in recurrent respiratory infections. It also has varying degrees of impact on children's growth and development, nutritional status, and intellectual development.
