Children do not digest food accumulation, i.e., dyspepsia. It may be caused by physiological factors such as overeating, or by pathological factors such as chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer. It can be treated through dietary adjustments and medications.
1. Physiological factors: Overeating, eating spicy and stimulating foods, cold and greasy foods such as spicy video, fried chicken, ice cream, coffee, and marinated meat can increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa, causing nausea, loss of appetite and other indigestion symptoms. It can be relieved by eating a light diet, more rice porridge, noodles and other easy-to-digest foods, as well as strengthening exercise.
2. Pathologic factors:
(1) chronic gastritis: bacterial, fungal, parasitic infections and the stimulation of aspirin and other drugs and other factors can lead to chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa, manifested as bloating, early satiety and other symptoms of indigestion. It can be treated by acid-suppressing drugs such as rabeprazole, and oral probiotics such as bifidobacteria can be taken to regulate the intestinal tract.
(2) Peptic ulcer: Helicobacter pylori infection and excessive gastric acid secretion can lead to the occurrence of gastric and duodenal ulcers, which appear as acid reflux, heartburn, bloating and other indigestion symptoms. Clarithromycin, amoxicillin, bismuth potassium citrate, rabeprazole and other drugs can be chosen for anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment. Acid suppressants such as cimetidine can be taken orally for excessive gastric acid secretion, which can help relieve symptoms.
Children with indigestion are advised to seek prompt medical attention for a clear diagnosis and targeted treatment. In addition, all of the above medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor and should not be used without authorization.
