Abdominal distension can make people feel uncomfortable in their digestive system, and in severe cases, it may also affect their appetite, posing a threat to their physical health. Especially for children, after experiencing bloating symptoms, mothers should pay attention in a timely manner to avoid untreated bloating leading to other serious diseases. What causes frequent bloating in children?
The causes of abdominal distension are complex and often include gastrointestinal disorders, indigestion, and other factors. Children often experience bloating, which may be due to an imbalance in gut microbiota. This can lead to weakened gastrointestinal function and slower intestinal peristalsis, resulting in bloating symptoms. Mothers can give their children some probiotics in moderation and pay attention to their daily diet to gradually relieve symptoms.
In cases of severe abdominal distension, it cannot be ruled out that there may be more serious gastrointestinal diseases. For example, diseases such as gastric ulcer, gastric dilation, pyloric obstruction, colitis, and intestinal obstruction can also cause bloating symptoms. To determine the cause of bloating, parents should promptly take their babies to the hospital for examination.
In addition to gastrointestinal diseases causing bloating, liver and gallbladder diseases may also be accompanied by symptoms of bloating, such as chronic hepatitis, hepatosplenomegaly, cholecystitis, gallstones, etc. These diseases cannot be ignored. If the child's bloating symptoms do not improve, it is recommended that the mother take the child for medical examination.
