Patient's question:
At one time, I sought treatment from a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for "galactocele," and it took about 6 months of treatment to see some improvement. Recently, due to a kindergarten physical examination, my child's weight and height were both below standard, so I went back to the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for treatment. The doctor said it was a case of pediatric anorexia caused by a weak spleen and stomach. I would like to know what dietary precautions should be taken during the treatment process, and what foods should be avoided to prevent a weak spleen and stomach?Doctor's answer:
Maintain a relaxed and pleasant dining mood, creating a good dining atmosphere. Let the child eat happily. Even if the child doesn't eat well a few times, don't worry. Don't threaten the child to eat, and don't beg the child to eat. Don't skip a meal and don't worry, nor use snacks to make up for it. If you're hungry, you'll eat. When the child is unwilling to eat a certain food, adults should consciously and step-by-step guide them to taste that food. Neither should they compromise without principles, nor should they force too hard.
