Question
What should be done if a 1-year-8-month-old baby has low immunity, frequently falls ill, and is not in good spirits?
Answer
According to your description, the baby might be suffering from a qi deficiency, which is often accompanied by pale complexion, rapid breathing, weakness in limbs, dizziness, sweating during exercise, and a soft voice. Qi deficiency can lead to bleeding issues. It’s recommended to take a large dose of Astragalus decoction in the form of a decoction. Additionally, the baby’s condition may be related to chronic colitis, also known as non-specific ulcerative colitis. It’s advisable to undergo a colonoscopy first to determine the cause and then proceed with symptomatic treatment.
