Many babies will have abdominal pain, but the symptoms are different. Some babies experience severe pain, while others experience mild pain. Of course, the duration of abdominal pain can vary, which makes many parents anxious and unsure of what department to seek treatment for pediatric abdominal pain?
Where to treat pediatric abdominal pain
There are many reasons that can cause abdominal pain in children, such as colds, enteritis, indigestion, parasitic infections, etc. Parents can take their babies to the internal medicine department for examination and treatment, and specific treatment methods should follow medical advice.
What should I do if my baby has abdominal pain
If the baby's abdominal pain is severe, parents should not panic first. The first thing to do is to confirm the cause of the baby's abdominal pain. If it is caused by intestinal spasms, then feed the baby some warm water and let the baby slowly fall asleep under warm conditions. Generally, when the baby wakes up, they can return to normal.
Of course, if a baby has severe abdominal pain, parents can warm their palms first, then massage the baby's abdomen, or put a hot water bottle with a suitable temperature on the baby's abdomen, which can also have a relieving effect. If these methods do not make the baby's abdominal pain disappear, it may be caused by acute inflammation, obstruction or intussusception, which must be taken seriously and taken to the hospital for examination and treatment.
In addition, having roundworms in the baby's belly can also cause abdominal pain. You can gently massage the belly, and the abdominal pain will be relieved or disappear.
