Parents should help correct their child's eating habits by including more foods that benefit spleen and stomach function, such as Chinese yam, millet, corn, and pumpkin. These can help improve constipation caused by spleen deficiency. It is also appropriate to consume more foods that invigorate the spleen. Parents may also take their children to a reputable traditional Chinese medicine hospital for treatments such as spleen meridian therapy, pricking the Four Seam points, moxibustion, and stimulating the "Zusanli" (ST36) acupoint, which can enhance the digestive and transforming functions of the spleen and stomach, promote intestinal motility, and alleviate constipation symptoms.
