In traditional Chinese medicine, there is a saying: “When the spleen and stomach are weak, the nine orifices will not function properly.” The nine orifices are the eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth, urethra, and a**s.
Today, we see more and more children needing glasses at a very young age, and rhinitis has also become very common. These conditions are often linked to spleen deficiency.
Similarly, issues such as difficulty urinating or constipation are also related to weakness in the spleen and stomach.
Many children nowadays resemble the elderly: they lack strength, have poor appetite, and avoid physical activity. If you look closely, you’ll notice that these children are often prone to problems in one or more of the nine orifices.
