How do I treat abdominal pain?

  In the summer, there are more children with abdominal pain. Many parents have asked about abdominal pain, so we would like to introduce it as follows, in order to dispel your doubts and to treat similar cases correctly, and the key is to prevent it before it happens.  There are many causes of abdominal pain in children, and the cause should be clarified as much as possible. In terms of severity, the most serious ones are surgical diseases, such as appendicitis, intussusception, intestinal obstruction, etc. These diseases are mostly accompanied by fever, vomiting, abdominal distension, no stool, poor spirit, etc. If these conditions are present, it is best to go to the hospital in time, and to follow up when the disease changes or worsens, and if necessary, surgery.  Then there are general inflammatory diseases, such as gastritis and enteritis, which can be accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea and other manifestations, and are relatively simple to treat.  It is common to go to the hospital for a checkup and find that it is just mesenteric lymphadenitis. This kind of abdominal pain can recur and is related to eating cold, cold and flu, fever, etc., and should be avoided as much as possible.  More often, there is no abnormality in the examination, but there is recurrent abdominal pain, mostly intestinal cramps or recurrent abdominal pain.  The latter two conditions mostly have no targeted treatment and do not endanger the child’s health, and will improve naturally as the child grows and develops.  Chinese medicine believes that abdominal pain is related to cold, which is the reason why many children have pain after blowing air conditioners or eating cold drinks. In this case, the cold food enters the stomach and intestines, suppressing the yang energy in the stomach and intestines to digest food (or extinguishing the fire of digestion), and the stomach and intestines cannot move properly, and then the pain will come. Better children will abdominal pain after eating cold drinks, bad children will also abdominal pain after eating some cool foods, such as mung beans, bitter melon, watermelon, etc. People often drink honeysuckle lotion and various herbal teas Wang Laoji, etc., which are also cool and not suitable for everyone.  There is no way to prevent it. If your child has frequent abdominal pain and it worsens after eating cold drinks or cool foods, try the following: First, boil water with ginger, brown sugar and red dates every day to warm the stomach and intestines and keep sufficient digestive power; Second, you can also try Chinese medicine: 6g of cinnamon stick, 12g of white peony, 3g of licorice, 15g of syrup or maltose, 5 slices of ginger and 10 pieces of dates, boil water and drink every day.
