Baby food accumulation is actually a traditional Chinese medicine concept. There are many reasons for the occurrence of baby food accumulation, but the main reason is that the baby eats too much and cannot digest it. After this symptom appears, the baby will experience symptoms such as bloating, dry stools, hiccups, and fever. In fact, after accumulating food, babies may also experience symptoms such as perming and burning their hands and feet.
