What is the reason for the baby's bad breath?

Patient's question:

The baby's health condition was previously good. Recently, he has had bad breath and doesn't want to eat much. His spirits are also not good. He sleeps well at night but starts crying after a while, and this happens repeatedly. His deep sleep has always been poor. What should we do?

Doctor's answer:

So young a baby experiencing bad breath again, according to traditional Chinese medicine, is caused by excessive stomach fire, not by oral inflammation. It is recommended to take the child to see a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. You can use Niuhuang Qingwei Wan and Huanglian Shangqing Wan, and ensure the child drinks plenty of water. If the child has poor sleep, check if they are calcium-deficient, as calcium-deficient babies often exhibit poor sleep as a secondary symptom.
In addition to medication for treating the bad breath, the patient should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in more outdoor activities. At the same time, the patient should pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for treatment to achieve better therapeutic effects.
