Patient's question:
Symptoms of abdominal distension in newborns, my baby is only 20 days old, the child often spits up, and the stomach looks very large, what is this symptom?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you: Babies often get angry when they are young. You can place one hand on the baby's abdomen and gently tap with the other hand; you will hear a sound, which indicates that the baby is a bit swollen. You can massage the baby's stomach in a clockwise direction to help them expel gas and clear their system. After feeding, do not immediately lay the baby down. Instead, hold them up, gently pat their back, and wait a few minutes before putting them down.
