Question
How to treat the symptoms of anemia in a 4-year-old child?
Answer
It is recommended to first conduct blood routine and hemoglobin level checks to determine the cause of the anemia. If it is iron deficiency anemia, it can be improved by increasing iron intake, such as eating animal liver, pork blood, and other foods, and ensuring a balanced diet. Additionally, consider using iron supplements like ferrous sulfate oral liquid. At the same time, vitamin C can be taken to promote iron absorption. For children diagnosed with blood diseases, timely medical treatment should be sought, along with relevant supportive treatments such as gastrointestinal decompression. Parents should avoid their children’s picky eating habits and ensure a reasonable diet.
