Patient's question:
The son of my sister has been complaining of stomach pain since last week. After checking at the hospital, it was found to be a case of biliary ascariasis. However, today he ate some lamb. I would like to ask if children with biliary ascariasis can eat lamb?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: Children with biliary ascariasis should avoid greasy foods. Consuming too much greasy food can block the spleen and stomach, leading to dysfunction in their transportation and transformation, accumulating dampness and turning it into heat, creating favorable conditions for parasites to live in the body. Therefore, avoid eating too much fatty meat, chicken soup, mutton, etc. Biliary ascariasis is the most severe complication among intestinal ascariasis. It is most common in school-aged children aged 6-8, farmers, and late-stage pregnant women.
