How to treat “intestinal cramps” abdominal pain in children

  After the summer, the number of babies with abdominal pain in pediatric clinics increases significantly. Most of them have paroxysmal abdominal pain, which lasts for a few minutes at most and does not exceed half an hour. It is often thought to be “intestinal parasitic infection” and treated with deworming, but it is not effective.  Etiology 1. Developmental factors: The disease is mainly seen in children after preschool age, which is a period of rapid growth and relative tension in gastrointestinal function, making them susceptible to the disease.  2. Climatic factors: The disease can be seen throughout the year, but it is most common in the autumn stage every year, which may be related to the cooler weather, especially the cold stimulation during sleep at night.  3. Dietary factors: Most often seen in people who eat a lot of sorbet and cold drinks in summer.  Treatment Acute phase: Because the disease often remits on its own, abdominal pain can be pressed and hot compresses can be applied to the abdomen during the attack, without oral pain medication.  Prevention of attack: 1.  2. Pay attention to keep warm when sleeping and open windows less.  3. Take a bowl of ginger and sugar drink (3-5 slices of ginger + appropriate amount of water boiled for 3 minutes, add appropriate amount of brown sugar) orally every night for 7-10 days, it can be relieved.
