Why do babies often have a rotten tongue1

  The commonly used method in traditional Chinese medicine for seeking medical treatment is "observing, smelling, questioning, and cutting", which determines where problems are occurring in the body by observing the patient's symptoms. When a person lacks certain trace elements or vitamins in their body, a series of reactions will occur. Unlike adults, babies do not have a diverse and rich diet. Their diet is relatively light and monotonous, and they will not have oral problems like adults. Therefore, if a baby's tongue is rotten, it should be due to a lack of vitamin B2 or zinc in the body; But it cannot be ruled out that the tongue ulceration is caused by internal heat. To confirm the diagnosis, it is better to take the baby to the hospital for a detailed examination.

  A lack of vitamin B2 can affect the growth of the body's skin and mucous membranes, which can easily cause oral problems. If a baby lacks vitamin B2, it can lead to tongue ulcers and also be accompanied by certain symptoms such as anemia, fatigue, and irritability. Parents should timely supplement vitamins for their baby, and also drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, which can help alleviate the condition to a certain extent.
