What to do if your baby has diarrhea and stomach gurgling

Baby diarrhea stomach gurgling is due to the flow of gas and liquid in the intestinal tract and produce a kind of sound conduction to the skin outside due. The intestinal tract normally exists only a trace of gas and liquid, but when the gas or liquid exceeds a certain level, and can not be reabsorbed by the intestinal tract, then the intestinal peristalsis abnormalities, too fast or too slow in the case of intestinal tubes of gas, water collision and produce sound. When too much liquid is discharged to the outside of the body, that is manifested as diarrhea. Baby diarrhea stomach gurgling may be due to a variety of reasons, if accompanied by symptoms of diarrhea, may be related to dietary factors, abdominal cold or infection. According to the different causes of symptomatic treatment. 1, the abdomen is cold: the weather changes, the baby is cold, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal peristalsis accelerated, resulting in diarrhea. We should pay attention to keep the child warm, especially pay attention to keep the abdomen warm.

In order to avoid intestinal flatulence, you can hold your baby upright after feeding, burp him gently, so that the air in the stomach, and then put down the baby lying down. (2) Lactose intolerant babies will also have diarrhea: the baby’s intestine can not secrete the enzyme that breaks down lactose, lactose will be broken down by bacteria in the intestine into lactic acid, thus destroying the alkaline environment of the intestine, and the intestine secretes a large amount of alkaline digestive juices to neutralize the lactic acid, so it is easy to have diarrhea. You can switch to lactose-free formula milk powder, if the baby’s symptoms improve quickly after switching to milk powder, then it is very likely to be caused by lactose intolerance. 3, some children are due to infection caused by diarrhea, need to use drugs under the guidance of the doctor.
