Sunan Ibn Majah, Book of Medicine(view book)
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Prophet ﷺ visited a man (who was sick) and said to him:
“What do you desire?” He said: “I want wheat bread.” The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever has wheat bread, let him send it to his brother.” Then the Prophet ﷺ said: “When a sick person among you desires something, give it to him.”
