Patient's question:
My son is 19 months old and has only grown 7.5 teeth. Is it because the milk is cold? He was weaned at one year old, and the milk wasn't enough. He also coughs, runs, acts crazy, gets restless, and cries, which sometimes leads to vomiting. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The child indeed has an imbalance of the spleen and stomach and gastrointestinal motility disorders. It is not recommended to take oral medication again to avoid further burdening the gastrointestinal tract. It is suggested that the Traditional Chinese Medicine department provide massage for the child, which can regulate the spleen and stomach, enhance the child's immunity, and gradually improve symptoms. If the infant's condition involves calcium supplementation, it is recommended to take fish liver oil rich in vitamin A and get appropriate sun exposure. Vitamin D supplements, along with vitamins A and D, help with calcium absorption and utilization. It is advised to drink hawthorn water in moderation.
