How to treat children who fart frequently

In fact, farting is not an indecent thing. As long as you pay attention to the surrounding situation when you fart, it will be fine. But children are different. Children cannot distinguish between scenes. Farting is also a physiological activity for children. But if children fart frequently, is there something wrong with their body? How should children who fart frequently be treated?

Frequent farting is very common in infancy. Babies who are just a dozen days old and have been breastfed may sometimes come out with a little poop when they fart, and their stomachs may often make gurgling sounds.

The gastrointestinal tract of infants is immature, which causes uncoordinated intestinal motility at different stages of the baby's life and causes intestinal bloating - gurgling sounds in the stomach, frequent gas and farting, and frequent unexplained crying. This phenomenon is medically known as infantile colic. Infant colic refers to a healthy, well-nourished baby who cries for at least three hours a day, at least three days a week, for more than three weeks. Most babies start to show symptoms 2 to 3 weeks after birth and gradually improve after 3 to 4 months. Since infant colic is a problem in the baby's development, parents do not need to worry and should understand that this kind of crying by the baby is not a disease. At the same time, keep the baby in a comfortable position as much as possible to help the child defecate smoothly. If the situation is more serious, you can take some drugs to improve gastrointestinal motility.

For infantile colic that is difficult to relieve, milk protein allergy should be considered. The amount of milk can be reduced or the milk can be diluted appropriately. For children who are suffering from diarrhea, taking probiotic powders such as Mommy Love or Biostime can shorten the course of diarrhea and regulate the gastrointestinal system.

If you fart frequently, farting can give you insight into your baby's gastrointestinal condition. Here are a few points for you:

1. Often babies love to fart and they are all smelly farts or hiccups, and they have a sour smell. This indicates that your baby has indigestion. You should reduce the amount of milk, add boiled water to reduce the intake of fat and high-protein food, dilute the food, and appropriately add milk containing bifidus factors and glucose. Bifidus factors can be converted into bifidobacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, which have the effect of inhibiting Escherichia coli and promoting food digestion and absorption. This is one of the reasons why babies love to fart.

2. Why do babies love to fart? They fart intermittently and continuously, but without odor. This is mostly caused by increased intestinal motility due to hunger after the stomach and intestines are emptied. At this time, you can often hear bursts of bowel sounds. In this case, the child is hungry and should be fed in time. The baby's love of farting is also related to hunger.

3. Frequent farts and feces are often caused by children eating too much food with high starch content. At this time, you should reduce the intake of food with high starch content and appropriately increase the amount of protein and fat food. This is a difficult to detect reason why babies love to fart.

If your child farts a lot, there may be something wrong with his or her farting system. Parents should take their children to the hospital for some examinations in time to determine the cause and receive timely treatment. Only in this way can the child continue to grow up healthy and happy. Finally, I wish you all good health, a happy life, and your children’s academic progress.
