Symptoms of indigestion in full-month-old babies

Indigestion is the most common disease among babies. Improper diet or cold can cause indigestion in children. Children with indigestion usually have symptoms such as dry stool, abdominal distension and fever, loss of appetite, white tongue coating, unstable sleep, and easy crying. Therefore, when children have the above symptoms, parents need to pay enough attention to avoid missing the best treatment period and causing adverse consequences.

1. Food accumulation

Food accumulation is a disease in traditional Chinese medicine, which mainly refers to gastrointestinal diseases caused by excessive milk and food consumption in children, which damages the spleen and stomach and causes the milk and food to stagnate in the middle burner. The disease of indigestion often occurs in infants and young children, and its main manifestations are abdominal distension, dry or sour stool, foul-smelling flatulence, sour and rancid belching, and abdominal distension and heat. Food accumulation over a long period of time can cause malnutrition in children and affect their growth and development.

Indigestion may not sound like a big deal, but it has real adverse effects on children's physical development and health! Therefore, as a parent, you must never underestimate this "small matter" of your baby's indigestion.
