Question
What should a child with acute gastritis eat?
Answer
It is recommended to start with fluid foods like congee during the acute gastritis period, and then gradually transition to semi-fluid, soft foods, and finally return to normal diet. Avoid eating rough foods like crisp biscuits, and opt for foods like noodles and buns. In daily life, pay attention to a light diet, avoid irritating foods, engage in moderate exercise, participate in outdoor activities, maintain a cheerful mood, and these can all help in the child’s recovery.
