Question
What to do when a child cries and whimpers at night with dry stool?
Answer
This situation may be due to fluid deficiency and intestinal dryness, where the intestines lack moisture and fail to function properly, leading to symptoms such as dry, hard stools, difficult bowel movements, and signs of fluid deficiency. It is also known as intestinal dryness syndrome with excessive internal heat in the large intestine. Treatment can be administered with the Beni Tong tea.
