What are the side effects of enema in children?

First of all, I would like to remind all parents to pay attention to their children's health, especially their diet. A correct diet is an effective way to help children get healthy. If children are not fed correctly, it will lead to indigestion, colds, fever and other diseases. Some children cannot stand the pain of injections and medication, so they will choose enema, that is, administering the drug through the rectum. This may also cause harm to the children.

What harm does enema do to children?

1. Enema treatment to reduce immunity is usually performed in clinics and is often labeled as a green therapy. Due to the lack of professional knowledge, people are so ignorant that they use enema with any medicine. Sometimes, doctors in some clinics use large amounts of hormone enemas to cater to parents' desire for quick results, which can cause damage to the immune system.

2. It is impossible to do a skin test before allergic enema treatment, and parents are not clear about the specific medication. Once anaphylactic shock occurs, serious consequences may occur.

3. Intestinal flora imbalance There are many bacteria in the human intestine that are beneficial to the body, called probiotics. Enema medication can cause bacterial flora disorders, especially antibiotics can kill beneficial intestinal bacteria and cause diarrhea.

4. Causing intestinal dysfunction: Frequent enema will make the anal sphincter more relaxed, resulting in worse sensitivity to the urge to defecate. Frequent bowel cleansing can easily cause disorder in intestinal flora, leading to intestinal dysfunction, and causing symptoms such as abdominal bloating and diarrhea.

5. Cause other complications. Since enema operation itself is an invasive operation, it has certain risks. At the same time, due to the particularity of the anorectal structure, the operation by non-professionals will greatly increase the chances of various serious complications. Clinically, it has been observed that the complications caused by enema operations range from mild to severe: perianal skin damage, intestinal mucosal damage, fecal incontinence, intestinal infection, bleeding, and even intestinal perforation, rupture, water and electrolyte imbalance, and collapse.

It turns out that giving children enemas frequently is so harmful! !

The best doctor is yourself, the best medicine is food, the best hospital is the kitchen, and the best cure is persistence!

Experts suggest that as children grow up, parents must take good care of their baby's diet, balance their nutrition, improve their physical fitness, and enhance their immunity and resistance in order to reduce the number of times their children get sick. When you are sick, you must go to a regular hospital for medical treatment, observe your child's physical condition in a timely manner, and do not delay the best time to seek medical treatment.
