Question
How should a child who often refluxes acid water be treated? What were the previous treatment situations and effects? What kind of assistance is needed? How effective is the treatment without medication but through diet?…
Answer
Common causes of stomach diseases in children include Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, poor dietary habits, and family heredity factors. Treatment can range from medication to dietary changes, depending on the severity of the condition. If medication is not preferred, dietary adjustments can be tried, such as increasing dietary fiber intake and avoiding irritating foods to improve symptoms. However, for severe gastritis or peptic ulcers, medication remains the primary treatment method. Additionally, parents should pay attention to their child’s dietary situation, identify any abnormalities early, and seek professional medical assistance.
