Question

When a child experiences abdominal pain symptoms that have persisted for some time, parents may feel concerned and hope to receive professional medical advice.

Answer

Children’s abdominal pain can be caused by various factors, including acute gastritis, improper diet, or food retention. It is recommended to first implement a short-term fasting period of about 4 to 6 hours to allow the stomach to rest and promote recovery. If the child feels thirsty, they can drink a small amount of ginger sugar water to relieve nausea. If there is no vomiting, they can replenish fluids in moderation, but should avoid drinking too much at once to prevent gastrointestinal irritation and subsequent vomiting.
