Question
The newborn experienced oxygen deficiency after birth, developed abdominal distension and vomiting after treatment, and is suspected of having an intestinal malformation. The hospital has stopped feeding. The parents inquire about how to handle the situation.
Answer
Newborn abdominal distension can be considered as indigestion or catching a cold. Medications like Mammy Love can be considered, or a warm ginger compress can be applied to the navel to avoid burns. If the abdominal distension is not accompanied by severe symptoms, and the baby is active, has normal flatulence , and is gaining weight, it may be functional abdominal distension and does not require special treatment.
