Question

My child only eats and doesn’t gain weight; they also don’t seem very spirited. What could be the matter?

Answer

This could be due to poor digestion of the spleen and stomach, leading to malabsorption and weight loss. If malnutrition is severe, intravenous supplementation may be considered. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture for gastrointestinal regulation is an option that can address the root cause. Issues with pediatric health have always been a concern for parents, and when treating this condition, it is advisable to adopt general treatment methods. Only by using proper methods can family members help children recover from diseases quickly without affecting their growth and development. Therefore, it is important for parents to pay close attention to their child’s condition and seek medical treatment promptly.
