refusal to eat
Introduction
Introduction In addition to breastfeeding, a 1-year-old baby can eat a lot of food supplements, but the appetite of each child has a big difference in the preferences of different diets. Some babies like to drink milk, while others prefer to eat salty. Flavored and scented foods generally meet the needs of heat and nutrients under normal conditions. If the child is not interested in the food that he or she likes, the amount of food is also reduced. This is the loss of appetite. If you dont open your mouth when you give food, or you just want to spit it out, or shake your head while feeding, push it away. This is obviously a refusal to eat.
Cause
Cause
The loss of appetite and refusal of the baby is mostly due to the disease. Many systemic infectious diseases (such as various acute and chronic suppurative infections, viral infections, high fever, nutritional anemia, etc.), digestive tract diseases (such as dyspepsia, gastroenteritis, hepatitis, etc.) will reduce the secretion of digestive juice And digestive function decreased and the appetite decreased, and even refused to eat, some local inflammation, such as herpetic stomatitis, pharyngitis, glossitis, etc., often cause food refusal due to pain during eating. This kind of refusal to eat is not without appetite, but because you want to eat and dare not eat, so children often appear to be irritated and cry when they eat.
