How to Adjust Diet for Pediatric Gastritis

Patient's question:

Children feel uncomfortable. In the morning, after going to bed, they vomited while eating dinner. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said they had pediatric gastritis and recommended dietary adjustment.

Doctor's answer:

Pediatric gastritis is mainly caused by overeating, poor eating habits, or environmental and physical factors, as well as long-term susceptibility to chemical and other biological factors, such as rough and irritating foods, high-salt diets, lack of fresh vegetables and fruits, medications, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and often accompanied by acute gastritis due to gastric mucosal inflammation. It is affected by skin damage and cell regeneration diseases. The condition in children is primarily related to weather changes, improper diet, or infections. The key to treatment is to prevent dehydration, acidosis, and hypokalemia. It is recommended that patients take oral rehydration to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, reduce inflammation, protect the gastric mucosa, and change their dietary habits.
