Patient's question:
Whenever I catch a cold or have inflammation in other parts of my body, I get stomach pain, specifically around the navel area. I've had several scans and taken quite a few anti-inflammatory medications. The pain usually goes away after taking the medicine, but it always comes back later. I can't even keep track of how many times it has occurred. How can I get a permanent cure for this?Doctor's answer:
Hello, inflammation of the mesenteric lymph nodes is a common phenomenon in many children. An ultrasound examination can determine this. During the acute phase, antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatments should be provided, along with antispasmodic and analgesic medications such as scopolamine. Additionally, you can try Huoxiang Chongji. It is important to prevent colds in daily life. If there are any prodromal symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, immediate antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatments should be administered. Also, avoid eating raw and cold foods, as well as spicy foods.
