Patient's question:
What should children with hydrocephalus eat? Hello doctor, I just had my child undergo an external shunt surgery to treat hydrocephalus, but I forgot to ask about postoperative care. Many sources say that postoperative care is also very important. So, what should children with hydrocephalus eat?Doctor's answer:
The human body, in addition to normal daily food intake, can benefit from targeted selection of brain-boosting foods, which promotes the development of brain cells. When the marrow sea is not sufficiently nourished, dietary therapy can also transform the essence of water and grains to nourish the brain marrow. In traditional Chinese dietary therapy, the method of replenishing organs with corresponding foods is commonly used, which holds significant value for brain health. When the human brain marrow is deficient and various functions are low, the brain marrow of animals such as pigs, cows, sheep, fish, dogs, and rabbits can be used for treatment, with certain clinical effects.
