Diarrhea is very common in daily life, and many people may experience it. However, babies have weak immune systems and their digestive system is not fully developed, so they are prone to diarrhea. Usually, when a baby has diarrhea, parents will massage their stomach to relieve the pain caused by the diarrhea. So, is the massage for a baby with diarrhea smooth or reverse?
Generally speaking, when a baby experiences diarrhea, parents should massage the baby's belly counterclockwise, as counterclockwise massage can alleviate the condition. But clockwise massage of the stomach can have a digestive and laxative effect, so the direction of female massage depends on the baby's physical condition.
The specific operation method for massaging a baby is to wash the palms clean and rub them against each other before massaging the baby, so as to increase the temperature of the palms. Especially in winter, it is important to rub your palms hot before massaging your baby's belly to prevent them from catching a cold. After the palm heats up, place it on the baby's abdomen and gently press it counterclockwise around the baby's navel dozens of times to help relieve diarrhea.
In addition to massaging babies to treat diarrhea, women can also take other measures to help babies stop diarrhea, such as pushing their backs, rubbing wooden objects, etc. At the same time, parents need to readjust their baby's diet, allowing them to eat easily digestible foods to regulate their intestinal health.
