Patient's question:
My daughter was born in 1994. Two months ago, she had abdominal pain and nausea, so I took her to Shanghai Children's Hospital for treatment. The doctor suspected a stomach problem and prescribed Domperidone, then sent us home. The next day, her pain was still the same (and it was unbearable), so I went to the emergency room again. The doctor suggested an X-ray to check if it was still a stomach issue and prescribed "Landan" and other stomach-related medications. Another week passed (anyway, she was in pain every day), and we had the X-ray done. We also had CT scans and EEGs before going back to see the doctor, who then prescribed Losec. We took all the prescribed medications, but her condition didn’t improve. So, I took her to another hospital (Wanmao Longhua) for further examination. "Color B, blood draw" tests were conducted.Doctor's answer:
Considering it may be caused by gastroenteritis, gastroenteritis is an inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal mucosa and its deeper tissues, characterized by hemorrhagic or necrotizing inflammation of the stomach and intestinal mucosa, often resulting from food poisoning. Symptoms include severe vomiting and diarrhea, often accompanied by abdominal pain, cramps, fever, sweating, and other symptoms. Its clinical manifestations are marked by severe gastrointestinal dysfunction and varying degrees of autotoxicosis.Anti-inflammatory and pain relief: In cases of bacterial infection, in addition to selecting effective antibiotics based on bacterial culture, Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome), Yuanhu Zhitong Pian (Corydalis Rhizome Pain Relieving Tablets), and Weisheng Ling (Gastrointestinal Spirit) can be used. If the condition involves fever, dehydration, or shock, appropriate antibiotics should be administered, and intravenous fluids, blood transfusions, or oxygen therapy may be necessary if needed. When selecting cold or spicy foods, which are irritating, it is important to consider individual conditions, dietary habits, and the season, avoiding excessive consumption, especially alcohol consumption.
Tableware should be washed before and after use. Some people prefer to rinse tableware with boiling water before use, but using clean water for a thorough rinse is more effective. Dish rags should be kept clean and as dry as possible to prevent bacterial growth.
