Question
A six-month-old infant underwent a CT scan and was found to have slightly widened temporal frontal arachnoid membranes bilaterally, following which they received injection treatment and rehabilitation training. However, since four months old, the infant’s appetite has significantly decreased. Do experts believe that anorexia is caused by brain disease?
Answer
In cases of mild brain development disorders in children, traditional Chinese medicine has the potential to repair damaged brain cells. Components such as camphor are rich in neurotrophic factors, small molecular peptides, and various amino acids, which are active ingredients that can directly act on brain cells, promoting protein synthesis, resisting cortical hypoxia, improving brain energy metabolism, and enhancing cerebral blood circulation. These treatment measures help to promote the growth and development of central nervous system cells, repair central nervous system cell damage, inhibit apoptosis of central nervous system cells, and increase cerebral blood flow.
