Question
My two-and-a-half-year-old son often has stomachaches. I also have an easily upset stomach. Recently, he’s been talking in his sleep during his afternoon nap, his palms and back are very warm (but not feverish), his arms are not hot. Even when I hold him close to my head, I can feel the warmth. His urine is very little and yellow, and his bowel movements are every two or three days instead of once a day. He eats well and is in good spirits. There’s a white blister inside his lips, and his eyes look puffy and blueish around them. His face doesn’t seem to have any luster.
Answer
This situation is mainly considered to be due to an excess of internal heat in children. You can give him some Chinese medicine for opsonize. The mouth blisters are related to the stomachache, so it’s recommended to give him Chinese medicine for opsonize as well. This is due to an internal heat constitution and requires gradual nourishment. Considering that the stomachache might be related to his constitution or diet, it’s important to pay attention to proper diet to avoid frequent stomachaches.
