Question
How long does it take for a child to recover from acute gastritis?
Answer
Acute gastritis usually improves within 7 days. During this period, it is recommended to provide the child with light and easy-to-digest foods such as congee and cooked noodles, while also using proton pump inhibitors to protect the stomach and reduce stomach acid. If pain is severe, consider using 6542 to relieve pain. If bacterial infection is confirmed, antibiotic treatment may be necessary.
