Patient's question:
When the baby cries, his head is always strained backward. The elders say that the baby is suffering from wind and needs to take "umbilical wind powder." The baby has an umbilical hernia. Can he take this medicine? Can a two-month-old baby take umbilical wind powder?Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility that the issue is related to your baby's gastrointestinal digestive function. Since your baby is young, their digestive function is naturally weaker. Combined with improper feeding methods and exposure to cold or chills, this can easily lead to such conditions. It is recommended to follow the guidance of a doctor at the hospital and appropriately increase probiotics and digestive aids. Feed in small amounts and avoid overfeeding. Complement this with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) massage therapy. When giving massages to your baby, ensure they stay warm. Strictly adhere to the doctor's instructions regarding medication.
