The 5-year-old female presented with a history of
anorexia since birth.
Usually she was easy to get a cold ,a fever or a
stomatitis. She didn't like sports and sigh frequently. Her stool was dry and
when she was in sleep he usually freted and sweated. In TCM, anorexia is mostly
caused by the retention of indigested food which results in stomatch-heat after
a long course. It's advisable to clear heat and remove retention and stagnancy.
