So, how to determine if the baby has stuck fish bones?
If the baby is stuck by fish bones, it will show pain and discomfort, and they will not dare to swallow. The baby will cry, refuse to eat, or always use their hands to pick their throat. Parents can roughly determine the position of fish bones based on their baby's reaction and expression after eating fish meat. If it is confirmed that the baby has been caught by a fish bone, parents should take the baby to the hospital for treatment in a timely manner. Do not force the baby to swallow solid food, and do not give the baby vinegar to avoid causing greater harm to the baby.
The doctor will examine the baby's mouth and throat, especially the tonsil socket, for any foreign objects or fishbones. If there are no fish bones in the mouth and throat, the possibility of fish bones sticking to the lower throat is very small. If it is confirmed that there are no fish bones in the mouth and throat, observation can be done first. If the baby is still crying and not eating, it is important to check for fish bones in the baby's lower throat or esophagus in a timely manner.
When parents feed their baby fish, they must clean the fish bones. The baby is still young and can make fish Congee. Mashing fish meat can supplement the nutrients needed by the baby's body and prevent it from getting stuck by fish bones.
