What medicine should I take for my baby's stomach ache?

In daily life, many babies often have stomach pains. There are many reasons for this. Because the baby's digestive system is not fully developed, eating too much food that is difficult to digest, or eating too cold food, or exercising too intensely, such as drinking a lot of ice soda after running and jumping for a long time, can cause gastrointestinal cramps and make the baby feel very painful in the stomach.

question:

Stomach pain in babies is often caused by intestinal cramps. The onset time is short, every few minutes, but it is easy to relapse. Contrary to what many parents imagine, baby's intestinal colic is not accompanied by symptoms such as fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. When the baby is in pain, his stomach is soft and there is no specific tenderness point. Older babies will actively complain of pain, while younger babies will show short-term crying and refusal to eat. Once the pain stops, your baby will be able to eat and drink and his spirits will improve. Most of the causes of baby's intestinal spasms are related to diet.

The baby's digestive system is not yet perfect, and eating difficult to digest or overly greasy food often causes indigestion. There are also special regulations for the temperature of food. If you eat too many cold drinks, your stomach will get cold and you will be prone to intestinal cramps. If you eat too many sweets, the sugar will ferment in your stomach and produce gas, which can also contribute to the occurrence of disease. Of course, some unhygienic food, when entering the baby's stomach, is more likely to cause dangerous diseases such as gastroenteritis and dysentery.

When mothers face their babies’ intestinal cramps, we recommend that you follow the following methods to deal with it scientifically. For simple gastrointestinal cramps, children can be given atropine or belladonna tablets to slow down gastrointestinal motility and relieve cramps. If there is no corresponding medicine at home, you can first relieve the symptoms through the most basic care methods. Use warm palms to massage the baby's belly in a clockwise direction to help the child relieve the pain caused by cramps. Families with the means can also use warm water bottles for hot compresses, but remember not to make it too hot to avoid scalding the child. However, when you are facing not only intestinal spasm, but also intussusception, gastroenteritis, ascariasis, appendicitis and other diseases, blindly massaging may cause the intussusception site to deepen and aggravate the condition. Local hot compresses may promote rupture and perforation of inflammatory and suppurative areas, forming diffuse peritonitis. We suggest that parents should not make arbitrary decisions and that seeking medical treatment is the right thing to do. What should I do if my baby has a stomachache? If the mother is completely sure about the baby's illness, she can take the emergency measures we introduced to relieve the child's pain. If the mother is not sure about the cause of the illness, she still has to take the child to the hospital and let the doctor make a judgment, and then decide how to care for the child and what medicine to use. The key to preventing your baby from having stomachache is to take good care of them on a daily basis. Diseases come from the mouth, so all mothers should strictly control their children's diet and be careful to prevent bacteria from invading their children's stomachs.
