Patient's question:
A 8-month-old baby cries a lot and has poor appetite compared to before. As a parent, I am very worried that the child's condition may worsen. Regarding the issue I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it seems to be post-infection spleen deficiency syndrome in children. The main symptoms include poor digestion, weak spleen and stomach, lack of appetite, and abdominal distension. The best method is pediatric massage, such as back rubbing and abdominal massage, which is highly effective and easily accepted by children. Avoid overfeeding. Try preparing different-flavored foods for the baby to see if they enjoy them. When feeding water, choose a time when the baby is happy. If the baby resists porridge, temporarily stop feeding and do not force them, as this may lead to even greater resistance to eating.
