Patient's question:
My child. We have been in contact for a month, and he has been having stomach problems consistently. I don’t know if it’s something I gave him to eat or if he didn’t want to eat something at kindergarten. I am very careful about what I feed him at home, fearing he might have some small issue, but recently he has been having stomach problems all the time. Is it related to the food I give him, or is he catching a cold?What kind of help I need: Is my child’s condition related to food?
Doctor's answer:
Related. Extremely cold food can affect the baby's digestive system, such as cold milk, cool boiled water, etc.; raw and cold food can soften the baby's diarrhea, while foods that can cause abdominal pain should be avoided: green beans, red beans, etc., can cause gas in the intestines, leading to nausea and vomiting, which should be avoided. Too much milk can also cause intestinal gas, which can speed up the baby's intestinal movement and may worsen diarrhea, so it should be avoided. High-fat foods: During nausea and vomiting, the absorption capacity is reduced, and high-fat foods such as pastries and oily snacks often lead to diarrhea because the fat is not digested, which can cause more serious diarrhea in babies.
