What to Do If Your Child Is Too Short

A 13-year-old boy is less than 140cm tall, and he usually has picky eating habits and anorexia. This may be due to the child’s weak spleen and stomach, leading to decreased appetite and malnutrition, resulting in poor growth. It is recommended to take oral ‘Xingpi Yang’er Granules’ to stimulate the appetite and improve digestion. Increase dietary nutrition appropriately, pay attention to a balanced diet, avoid overexertion, and engage in moderate physical exercise. At the same time, if diagnosed with pediatric endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a reasonable diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
