Why do children have diarrhea when they catch a cold in the stomach?

If the baby is not covered with a blanket when sleeping, or if the abdomen gets cold for other reasons, it may cause diarrhea symptoms. However, parents feel a little confused because this does not happen to adults. Why would children get diarrhea after their stomachs catch a cold? The editor will explain the triggering factors to you, and I hope that all parents can understand them.

Diarrhea is caused by many reasons. One of them is the hypermotility of the gastrointestinal tract. Before the water is completely absorbed, the food is discharged to the next process. The food stays in the gastrointestinal tract for too short a time and has too short a contact time with the digestive tract. This is the reason why your stomach catches a cold. Compared with skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle, one characteristic of gastrointestinal smooth muscle is that it is very sensitive to temperature changes and chemical stimulation. Even a slight change in temperature may cause a reaction, resulting in gastrointestinal motility disorders and intestinal spasms. And it's not just catching a cold, some people may also suffer from diarrhea due to drinking cold drinks. If you find that your baby has diarrhea many times after catching a cold, and has diarrhea every time he catches a cold, you should pay attention that the diarrhea is not necessarily caused by a single reason, but may be combined with other reasons such as gastroenteritis.

If your baby's diarrhea is caused by catching a cold, you can give your baby Xiaoer Wushicha Granules, which is a traditional Chinese medicine specifically for diarrhea and abdominal discomfort caused by cold. If your baby suffers from diarrhea frequently, you should buy a belly button patch and stick it on the belly button to dispel cold and stop diarrhea. In serious cases, it is recommended to give the baby drugs such as montmorillonite powder. This drug has the ability to cover the gastrointestinal mucosa, and by combining with mucus glycoproteins, it repairs and improves the defense function of the mucosal barrier against attacking factors in terms of both quality and quantity.

Therefore, parents must be careful not to let the baby's abdomen get cold, especially at night. They should put a towel blanket on the belly, or put on a small belly band. In addition, when the baby is sick, you should feed him medication in time according to the editor's advice, but if necessary, you should go to the pediatrician to check whether there are other complications.
