How to Deal with a Child’s Abdominal Distension?

At 12 weeks old, I didn’t know what the situation would be, but later I found out that the baby was sick. How should one handle a child’s abdominal distension? First, it is important to understand the causes of the baby’s abdominal pain. For example, if the baby is breastfeeding and the nipple is not suitable, or if the baby cries, it can inhale a large amount of air, leading to intestinal distension.
