Patient's question:
The baby is six years old this year. After getting off kindergarten, he felt uncomfortable in his stomach and then vomited. You could see the food in its original form. He felt better after vomiting. Could this be a symptom of a stomach flu? Also, which part should be massaged to help?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your baby's symptoms, there is acute vomiting, which is considered to be caused by acute gastritis due to factors like catching a cold. Since your child does not show symptoms of upper respiratory infection, it is not considered to be a stomach flu. Currently, it is necessary to take anti-infection medication and gastric mucosal protection medication, rather than massaging certain areas. You can massage the child's San Li point while taking the medication.Advice: It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene, keep warm, and actively seek pediatric medical attention for prompt treatment. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery.
