Patient's question:
Is it serious for a six-year-old child to have digestive system dysfunction and severe swollen lymph nodes?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Based on your description, it is considered to be caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction. The main symptoms are belching, bloating, frequent bowel movements, and they are often aggravated by eating stimulating or cold foods. Currently, since dysentery has already improved, it is important not to use antibiotics indiscriminately, as this can easily worsen gastrointestinal dysfunction. You should now take Vitamin B1 tablets or the gastric motility medication Domperidone (30 minutes before meals) and lactobacillus tablets to regulate intestinal function. Your diet should be light, with reduced intake of high-sugar foods, and increased consumption of rough fiber such as vegetables and chives to prolong the time food stays in the intestines. Avoid stimulating foods. With proper adjustment, it will gradually improve.
