What are the treatments for indigestion in children?

Many times, because babies cannot speak or express themselves, they can only use crying to express their thoughts. Since babies cannot express themselves, parents need to pay more attention to some details in life. Many parents overfeed their children for fear that they will be hungry, which can cause indigestion in children. So what are the treatment methods for indigestion in children?

The special physiological basis of young children can easily lead to conflicts with their rapid growth and high nutritional requirements. Nutrition experts point out that there are three main causes of indigestion in young children:

1. The food given is not easy to digest. 2. Giving too much new food. 3. Improper food combination.

How to determine if your baby has indigestion? Parents learn to identify problems from their children's poop. Because each infant and young child has different bowel habits, the number of bowel movements per day will also be different. In addition, young children will have different bowel movement characteristics due to factors such as genetics, physical constitution and food intake, but as long as they can maintain a regular bowel movement habit every day and there are no particularly abnormal phenomena, there is no need to worry too much.

However, if the child's bowel movements increase in frequency or the color and properties of the stool change significantly, then parents should pay attention.

When your baby has indigestion, some dietary therapies can be used to treat it. Fried milk cake: Fry the milk cake until it turns light yellow. After frying, the starch turns into carbonized dextrin, which can absorb water and has the effect of stopping diarrhea and aiding digestion. Scorched rice soup: Wash the rice, let it dry and fry until it turns brown. Add 6 grams of fried scorched rice into 100 ml of water and cook over low heat for 1 hour. Filter to remove the residue and add 0.4% salt and bring to a boil. The starch in the scorched rice soup turns into dextrin, making it easy to digest. Suitable for children with severe diarrhea and indigestion.

After reading the above article, I believe everyone should now know the methods for treating children's indigestion. The health of children is the most concerned issue for every parent, so when the child feels unwell, be sure to go to the hospital for examination in time. You can use some dietary therapy methods to improve the indigestion in life.
