Patient's question:
My daughter is already 5 months old and has been having diarrhea. Why hasn't she started eating beans yet?? What are the effects of long-term nausea and vomiting on children? Do 5-month-old babies need to digest certain nutrients?Doctor's answer:
Dear Consultee,Nausea and vomiting have many causes, generally resulting from conditions such as gastroenteritis, poor digestion, or stomach/cold deficiency. If it can be confirmed that the issue is caused by cold exposure, you can appropriately and flexibly use an umbilical patch to warm the stomach and intestines, which should help improve the condition. If it cannot be confirmed, it is best to visit a hospital for a routine stool examination to identify the cause. Once the diagnosis is clear, targeted treatment can be administered, which is a better approach.
