Question

My baby has been suffering from gas and bile reflux for three years, with no success from Western medicine treatment. I am seeking further treatment suggestions.

Answer

  1. Western Medicine Treatment: Use gastrointestinal motility drugs and gastric mucosal protective agents to increase gastrointestinal motility and protect the gastric mucosa.
  2. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment: Based on TCM differential diagnosis, prescribe medicine according to symptoms, which tends to be more effective.
  3. Diet and Nutrition: Avoid overeating and eating too fast, as well as spicy, greasy, overly cold or hot foods.
  4. Lifestyle Adjustment: Quit smoking and drinking, avoid stress, maintain a positive mood, and be cautious with medications that may irritate the gastric mucosa.
