Question
A nine-month-old male infant frequently experiences health issues, including anemia and indigestion. Although medication has been taken for the indigestion, the child’s weight has increased. Is this a normal manifestation of indigestion? Are there any quick and effective treatments for indigestion and anemia?
Answer
Indigestion is a common occurrence in children, and parents should remain calm and observe their child’s discomfort symptoms for appropriate care. The main symptoms of indigestion include abdominal bloating, loss of appetite, nausea, belching, heartburn, acid regurgitation, even a bad taste in the mouth, and loose stools. It is recommended to treat indigestion through dietary adjustments, such as having the child drink more yogurt and consume hawthorn. For anemia, it is advisable to consult a doctor for professional treatment advice.
