Question
Lately, the child has been very disobedient and constantly crying, and I’m not sure why a 7-month-old baby would have gas.
Answer
This condition may be due to weakness in the spleen and stomach, leading to malabsorption of nutrients. It can be treated with Xiangsha Liujun Wan, which has some effectiveness. The diet should be light and free of spicy and irritating foods, and plenty of water should be consumed. It is recommended to give the baby Simethicone, lactic acid bacteria powder, and Xingpi Yang’er Granules for treatment. Baby’s complementary food should be gradually introduced, with no more than one serving at a time to avoid increasing the burden on the digestive system.
