Question
How can a 2-year-old be encouraged to eat?
Answer
According to the described symptoms, the child may be suffering from anorexia due to weak spleen and stomach and dyspepsia. It is recommended to adopt Chinese medicine treatment, acupuncture, and massage therapy to strengthen the spleen and stomach, and promote digestion. Additionally, if the child is frightened, cinnabar can be placed in a red cloth bag and kept in close clothing or pillows. If accompanied by night terrors, it may be due to calcium deficiency, and it is suggested to supplement calcium appropriately.
