Doctor's answer:
Dear Consultee,Based on your description, it is likely that the heartburn and belching are caused by irregular diet or the consumption of cold foods. For indigestion, it is recommended to visit the pediatric department of a hospital for a follow-up examination and take targeted medications that strengthen the spleen, improve stomach health, and enhance gastrointestinal motility.
I hope this helps you. This is the advice for the question "What should I do about my child's heartburn and belching?" I hope it is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
