What to do if your four-year-old baby has a stomachache

When taking care of your baby, you must do it in a comprehensive way. Many parents are rather casual in taking care of their babies, which is of no help to the baby's growth. The baby's body is easily affected by the outside world. If it is not discovered in time, it will cause damage to the baby's health. What should I do if my four-year-old baby has a stomachache? There are some reasons for this situation in the baby. Let me introduce them in detail below.

What to do if your four-year-old baby has a stomachache:

1. Intestinal spasm. This is the most likely cause of stomach pain in children. In the pediatric surgery clinic of the Children's Hospital, most of the stomach pains in children are caused by pediatric intestinal spasms (intestinal cramps), which occur in children ranging from 1 or 2 years old to 11 or 12 years old. The most common age is between 4 or 5 years old and 5 or 6 years old. The main cause of intestinal cramps is improper eating (such as eating too much; eating a lot of cold food, etc.). At this time, the child has no specific tenderness points (his stomach is soft), can eat and drink, and is in good spirits. The treatment method is to take belladonna together with phenergan, chlorpheniramine, etc. When this happens, parents are very anxious, but generally there is no big problem.

2. Acute pancreatitis. Children aged 2 or 3 do not get the disease very often, but the incidence rate is relatively high in children aged 4 or 5 and above. The causes are mostly overeating, and most of them are greasy and indigestible food; pancreatitis caused by biliary ascariasis blocking the bile duct (this situation is not common); leukemia patients used L-mendomycin. The symptom is pain on the upper left side of the belly button. The parents found that the child ate a lot and had a stomachache (crossed his legs), and would not let anyone touch the upper left side of his belly button. Pancreatitis can usually be cured, but acute hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis can quickly lead to shock. Symptoms include severe abdominal pain (the child does not allow parents to touch his stomach), vomiting, poor mental state, and gray complexion. If rescue is not timely, it may result in death. The first step in first aid for pancreatitis is fasting, followed by adjusting the liquid diet.

3. Enteritis. The main symptom is pain in the entire lower abdomen centered around the navel, accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea. The stomach feels soft and there is no fixed tender point. Enteritis is usually caused by eating unclean food. Just pay attention to food hygiene in daily life.

After understanding what to do if a four-year-old baby has a stomachache, when improving a four-year-old baby's stomachache, parents must pay attention to the baby's diet and must choose food that is easy to digest. Giving the baby some cold, spicy, and greasy food at this time will not help the baby's body at all, and will aggravate the baby's stomach problems.
