Patient's question:
The child has not been eating for a long time, so they went to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital and got three sets of appetite-stimulating medicine. After taking them (two sets), they kept having foamy watery diarrhea, which was a bit smelly. Even after two sets of traditional Chinese medicine, they still wouldn't eat. They couldn't eat all day long, so they had no choice but to force them to eat something?Doctor's answer:
The eyes cannot only focus on the gastrointestinal tract. When malnutrition or other pathological conditions exist, they can all affect appetite. Short-term malnutrition does not affect intelligence. Poor appetite can be addressed by administering necessary nutritional supplements intravenously, correcting iron deficiency, correcting malnutrition, and combining it with dietary support. It should gradually recover. White rice is not suitable. You can add some vegetable soup. Fruits and fruit juices can be consumed daily. Pay attention to nutritional supplementation. When the child's health recovers, everything will improve.
