Patient's question:
I particularly dislike eating sunflower seeds. When I'm not busy, I often eat a lot of them. Recently, my digestive system hasn't been feeling well, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor told me I have gastroenteritis. I want to know if I can still eat sunflower seeds after getting gastroenteritis?Doctor's answer:
Acute gastroenteritis can consume sunflower seeds. Fruits can be eaten in moderation, but it is best to avoid them. Fruits should be blanched before consumption and should not be too cold to alleviate gastroenteritis. For acute gastroenteritis, while taking conventional medication, it is important to avoid raw, cold, greasy, fried, and spicy foods. Pay attention to drinking plenty of hot water. Keep the abdomen warm to prevent catching a cold. Observe carefully for a period of time, and seek further medical treatment at the hospital if necessary.
