What should I do if my child doesn't eat?

Patient's question:

Since March, Sui Chuan'er hasn't been eating well because he has fallen twice. He eats much less than before, and his stomach seems a bit bigger. He always keeps his eyes open while sleeping and has lost a lot of weight. Should we take him to the hospital to see?

Doctor's answer:

Children don't eat, they must reduce the amount of milk or snacks and other food sources, making it impossible for them to solve hunger problems through other means. Meals can be replaced with flavors that the baby likes to increase their appetite. You can also praise other children for eating well, as the baby will be motivated to eat as well. This can improve the baby's taste sensitivity and enhance their appetite. In daily life, it's important to let the baby engage in appropriate physical exercise to make them hungry and increase their appetite.
