Question
My baby is 3 years and 9 months old, and has a particularly picky eating habit, showing signs of yellowish skin and emaciation. I’m not sure if it’s due to spleen and stomach weakness, as well as lack of luster in the skin, with patches of white, and no growth in height for a year. What should I do?
Answer
Considering the situation you described, it appears that the child has spleen and stomach weakness and poor gastrointestinal function leading to malnutrition. In this case, it is suggested to give the baby medicines that strengthen the spleen and stomach, such as Qi Dai Wan or Ji Neng Jin San or probiotics to nourish the gastrointestinal function.
