Question

How to treat pediatric acute gastritis?

Answer

A cold can trigger acute gastritis in children, with symptoms including bloating, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, lower abdominal pain, diarrhea, and possibly joint pain and a general feeling of weakness. Patients may also experience abnormal leukorrhea during treatment for trichomoniasis. For treatment, consider using traditional Chinese medicine preparations such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Liquid or capsules, but it’s best to consult a professional TCM practitioner for treatment based on individual constitution and symptoms. Additionally, maintaining good dietary hygiene and rest can also help alleviate the condition.
