Patient's question:
Often have stomach pain, sometimes having four or five bowel movements a day, haven't gone to the hospital, just went to our local clinic. When I saw him, he said it was cold. The medicine I took was Jianwei Xiaoshi Pian, Lactic Acid Element Pian, and Qipi Wan. How do hospitals check for conditions like this? Now, it's just stomach pain and not wanting to eat.Doctor's answer:
According to the child's symptoms, traditional Chinese medicine initially considers it to be spleen deficiency and indigestion. The child may frequently experience recurrent abdominal pain, primarily around the umbilical area, accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, and poorly formed, foul-smelling stools. This condition may sometimes be associated with parasitic diseases. It is recommended to rest more and avoid overexertion. In terms of diet, opt for easily digestible foods. Avoid spicy and greasy foods. Do not consume fatty or excessively salty foods. Eggs and beef should be avoided for the time being. Maintain a light and simple diet. Additionally, it is advised that the child visit a gastroenterology department for a thorough examination, starting with a stool test. It is also recommended to administer Baohe Oral Liquid for oral treatment.
