Every parent wants to give their child the best thing and wants you to grow up soon. But now that food is abundant, parents can provide more and more food for their children, and the variety is becoming more and more abundant.
But this increases the gastrointestinal burden on children to a certain extent, causing many children to have "delicious health problems", of which one of the most common gastrointestinal problems in children.
So, what will happen to the child about food? Why does accumulation of food occur? What should parents do after a child has accumulated food?
Children take food differently, and they may lose their appetite and not want to eat it in the early stages of accumulating food. After a long time of accumulation of food, the child may be hungry, and after eating, sometimes the stomach is bloated, sometimes the stomach is painful, repeated. In addition, the smell in the child's mouth is annoying and even vomits. In addition, vomit is sour, indigestible food. Some children have a rotten rotten egg smell in their stools, increased frequency of stools, sticky, sticky on the toilet, bloated, more constipation than usual, long intervals between bowel movements, hard stool quality, and difficult to defecate. For young children, accumulating food can cause children to cry, wake up, and flush their cheeks. The red color is mostly in the right cheekbone, just like blush. Maybe some children's lips are as red as if they were wearing lipstick.
There are four main causes of food accumulation in children.
First, there is no choice in food. Eating raw cold melon, spicy, greasy too much, eating tonic ingredients will also affect the digestive function of the spleen and stomach.
Second, the diet is unrestrained, the child does not know hunger, the parents let the child overeat, the amount of food exceeds the digestion capacity of the spleen and stomach, and it is easy to accumulate food.
Third, bad eating habits, watching TV while eating, forced feeding, eating while playing, etc. will affect digestion and absorption.
Fourth, the children's gastrointestinal tract itself has weak conduction ability, digestive gland hypoplasia, insufficient secretion of digestive enzymes and gastric acid, and poor digestion and absorption of food, which is called "spleen deficiency" in Chinese medicine.
How do parents react when their children accumulate food? The experts made the following three recommendations:
1. The baby has a low-grade fever cough, it is best to send it to the hospital, the doctor has a clear diagnosis, and symptomatic treatment.
In the treatment, if the child has cough, sore throat, loss of appetite, or bloating due to accumulated food, evergreen athlete antilyste can be used. Among them, the traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as honeysuckle, chrysanthemum, forsythia, etc. can clear heat and detoxify, alleviate children's cough and sore throat, while hawthorn and tangerine peel have the effect of awakening the stomach and eliminating stagnation, which can improve the problem of children's loss of appetite and achieve the effect of stagnation and stomach.
2. Meal cooking. Food should be as light and soft as possible, do not eat meat, do not be too greasy, and the variety of food should not be messy. Please do not eat whole grains and green peppers, onions, leeks, soy milk and other foods that are easy to cause flatulence. At each meal, in order not to let the child eat enough, probiotics can be added as needed.
3. Massage. Lying on the bed, the parents use their thumbs, index fingers, and middle fingers to pinch the sides of the child's spine, from bottom to top, from top to bottom, 3 to 5 times a night.
