Question
What causes newborn diseases?
Answer
Newborns undergo disease screenings after birth, primarily to check for Phenylketonuria (PKU) and hypothyroidism. If the screening results are abnormal, further checks are needed to rule out the possibility of illness; if the results are positive, timely treatment is essential to avoid affecting the child’s future health. Additionally, red spots on newborns and symptoms like vomiting may be caused by indigestion, which can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine like Xingpi Yang’er Granules for regulating digestion, along with spinal massage therapy, nutritional support treatment, and maintaining good living habits.
