Patient's question:
A child is two years old. Recently, they were eating well, but suddenly they don't like to eat and have vomited once. They cough a few times at night and occasionally say their stomach hurts. We bought them Jianwei Xiaoshi Pian and Qixing Cha, but they haven't been very effective. What should the doctor do?Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: Due to the inherently weak constitution of children, especially a weak spleen and stomach with insufficient spleen Yang, slight dietary carelessness can lead to vomiting.Recommendations: After vomiting, do not feed the child immediately. Allow them to rest for a moment and then provide light liquid or semi-liquid food. Avoid cold and greasy foods. Drinking ginger and brown sugar water, or taking oral ginger juice or ginger slices, can be beneficial. Additionally, ensure the child is kept warm and avoid exposure to cold. Chinese patent medicine such as Li Zhong Wan is recommended, and probiotics can also be used to regulate the child's digestive system.
