The health of children is a matter that parents must always care about, especially for children who are growing up, as their health condition can affect their healthy development. Some children may experience symptoms of infantile chancre during their growth process, and many parents are unfamiliar with this disease. So, what does infantile chancre mean?
Childhood malnutrition, also known as chancre, was mainly caused by malnutrition in the old society, but in modern society, it is often due to improper feeding. Children with infantile malnutrition may experience symptoms of weight loss, or their weight may decrease as they age, accompanied by poor appetite, bloating and diarrhea, abnormal bowel movements, restlessness, and mental fatigue.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, infantile malnutrition is caused by damage to the spleen and stomach function. When the spleen and stomach function is poor and the yin qi in the body is insufficient, infantile malnutrition will gradually form, posing a great threat to the health of children. When parents notice that their child's weight has not increased normally, they should pay attention and promptly check and treat the child.
In order to prevent children from developing infantile malnutrition, parents should pay attention to their children's dietary habits during the process of raising them. Do not let children overeat in daily life, try to eat less and more meals, avoid greasy and puffed foods, and do not let children eat fried foods frequently. Develop reasonable eating habits.
