Babies are curious about everything and also like to put various things in their mouths, especially if they don't know how to distinguish which things cannot be eaten. Eating things indiscriminately can have an impact on the baby's body, especially medication. Children who eat indiscriminately may need to go to the hospital for intestinal and gastric lavage, but parents may also worry about the harm of baby enema. So, what are the hazards of baby enema?
What are the hazards of baby enema
Enema is a common method, but if the enema technique is not performed properly, it is highly likely to cause local damage to the baby's anus, and in severe cases, may even lead to consequences such as intestinal perforation. When an excessive amount of liquid is absorbed by the intestines, it can also cause heart failure in babies. Therefore, frequent enemas should not be given to babies, and the liquid used for enemas must be medical in order to reduce the impact on the baby's body.
What should I pay attention to after a baby enema
1. After giving the baby an enema, it is important not to eat immediately. Parents should pay attention to observing whether the baby's intestines are unobstructed, and judge by observing the baby's abdominal pain and exhaust. Only when the baby's intestines are unobstructed can they eat without causing any burden on the intestines.
2. After the baby's enema, they should also follow a scientific diet, starting with easily digestible and absorbable foods. They should not eat difficult to digest foods from the beginning, and even delicious foods should not be eaten in large quantities at once.
