Question
If a child has a soft body, can’t stand up, can only stand against a wall, can’t crawl or walk, sweats excessively on the head, is afraid of heat, wakes up easily at night, has long-term night feedings, is teething, and doesn’t call ‘Dad’ or ‘Mom,’ does this require treatment? How should it be examined and treated?
Answer
The symptoms of a child may be caused by a deficiency of trace elements, extreme heat or cold, indigestion, or poor digestion. It is recommended to keep the environment quiet and not to overly disturb the child’s sleep at night. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is suggested to take the child to the hospital for a check-up of trace elements and to receive treatment according to the doctor’s advice. At the same time, you can try adjusting the diet to increase the child’s nutritional intake to promote growth and development.
