Question
My baby is only 4 months old and weighs only 12 pounds. Lately, he often cries and fussy, and he doesn’t have much appetite. What should I do?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby may be experiencing weak spleen and stomach issues leading to poor nutrition absorption. It is recommended that you give the baby some traditional Chinese medicine like Xiangsha Liujun Wan to regulate the spleen and stomach. At the same time, pay attention to keeping the baby’s diet light, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and ensuring the baby has enough water intake. Additionally, it is suggested that you take the baby to the hospital for further examination to receive professional diagnosis and treatment.
