Let's talk about a 4-year-old patient who had a follow-up visit a few days ago.
Diagnosis:Obvious snoring with mouth breathing, severe nasal congestion, difficulty falling asleep, unsteady sleep, and occasional teeth grinding; Nasal congestion and sneezing are more obvious in the morning and evening, and the tip of the tongue is red and white.
Check:Nasopharyngeal lateral view shows adenoids A n077。
Dialectic:Deficiency of lungs and spleen qi.
Prescription:Anti-inflammatory and anti-glandular decoction plus or minus.
Prescription:Astragalus membranaceus, parsnip, Banxia, Poria cocos, tangerine peel, licorice, prunella vulgaris, oysters, Zhejiang fritillary, melon peel, Saponaria thorn, floating wheat, ephedra root syndrome differentiation plus and minus; (Note: ** is only a case of individual patients, TCM syndrome differentiation is one person, do not copy and abuse the prescription casually).
Efficacy:Dissolve phlegm and disperse knots, and clear the nasal passages.
Warm once a day in the morning and evening, after going back to adhere to a course of treatment, parents said that the child's adenoids have atrophied, the symptoms of mouth snoring and nasal congestion have been significantly alleviated, and the later adjustment of the prescription consolidation, and then a course of conditioning, re-examination, adenoids have atrophied to a normal level, and the spleen and stomach are regulated in the later stage, and the immunity is strengthened to consolidate the curative effect to reduce **.
Traditional Chinese medicine thinks:The function of the lungs and spleen in children is relatively fragile, and when they feel the evil qi from the outside world, it will lead to the obstruction of the spleen and stomach function, which will lead to the stagnation of phlegm and dampness, and repeatedly stimulate the respiratory tract for a long time, and eventually form adenoid hypertrophy. On the **, you can use some clever methods to attack and supplement to achieve the goal of shrinking the adenoids.
In addition, the child's diet is not bad under the parent's management, but there are two aspects that need to be corrected.
01 First:
First: children prefer fruits to vegetablesChildren need vitamins for growth, so parents will give more fruits. However, fruits are usually cold in nature and high in sugar, so it is not recommended to consume them excessively. In general, the proportion of fruits should not exceed 10% of the overall diet, and it is best to try to replace fruits with vegetables, especially leafy greens.
02 Second:
Second: the problem of drinking milk before bedtime. If your child is over the age of three, the nutrients you get from food during the day are usually sufficient. Therefore, it is no longer advisable for children to drink milk at bedtime. This is especially important for children with adenoidal hypertrophy, rhinitis, weakness of the spleen and stomach, or enlarged tonsils.
Parents should understand that it is not milk itself harmful, but that excessive intake is not ideal. After all, milk also needs to be digested, and we should let the digestive system be fully rested and restored at night, which also has a positive effect on promoting the growth and development of children and improving immunity.
For children with accumulated food, you can also use diet conditioning, and then share three small methods with you, according to the characteristics of the child's situation, to choose for the child, suitable for children over two years old, very simple, of course, the child's condition is more serious, or to seek the help of a doctor, do not delay the child's condition.
The first one is hawthorn + grain maltIt has the effect of strengthening the spleen and eliminating food, appetizing, and dissipating qi and stasis, and is more suitable for children's food accumulation and indigestion;
The second is tangerine peel + white radish, especially white radish, digestion and stagnation, tangerine peel can regulate qi and strengthen the spleen, dry and damp phlegm;
The third is hawthorn + appleIt can promote children's digestion, and the sweet and sour taste is appetizing;
Write at the end:
