html A 13-year-old child is constipated and poops "sheep poop" and cries when he poops. The whole family is worried
L The child is only three years old and has been suffering from constipation for more than two years. Her grandmother said that after she stopped breastfeeding when she was less than one year old, her mother After giving her milk powder, she became constipated. At first, I thought it was a problem with the milk powder and I changed it, but she still had bad stools. In the past two years, she had bowel movements once every three to five days, which was also relatively dry. In the past six months, it has become more serious, many times. I have to use to open , and I cry a lot when I defecate, which is very laborious, and my stool is as hard as sheep feces. The child is in excruciating pain every time he has a bowel movement, and his mouth is prone to ulcers. He doesn't sleep well and cries every night after falling asleep. The adults are also in pain, but their appetite is normal.
html The 13-year-old still eats milk three times a day.
Grandma is very worried and has seen many doctors. She still pays more attention to the child's diet, pays more attention to indigestible food, and only has a small amount of snacks. The only problem is that the three-year-old child is still given milk three times a day. Grandma said that if the child wants to drink, he will cry if he doesn't drink, so there is nothing he can do. The child seems to be of medium height and his development is within the normal range. The dark circles under his eyes are slightly heavy and the tongue coating is thick and greasy. The other symptoms are not particularly obvious. For the first time, she was given Licorice Xiexin Decoction with Coptis and a commonly used gynecological prescription Guizhi Fuling Pills , and was told that she could only drink milk once a day.
The problem was solved, the child was fine, and the family was relieved.
Five days later, grandma said that she could have bowel movements once every two days. Although it was still a little dry, the child still had a smooth bowel movement without any effort. The happiest thing was that he slept well. , it’s completely possible to sleep through the night, and the parents’ mental state has also improved. Why should we use prescriptions containing coptis? Many doctors are afraid of using coptis for children, for fear of damaging the child's spleen yang. In fact, this is not the case. This baby has been constipated for two years, which proves that the body has been suffering from heat for a long time. It is necessary to use a small amount of Coptis chinensis to relieve the heat. More importantly, the prescription also contains dried ginger to warm the spleen yang and prevent Coptis chinensis from getting too cold. The problem of oral ulcers has also been solved. So why is Guizhi Fuling Pill, a commonly used gynecological prescription, used? Guizhi Fuling Pills are a blood-activating agent. If a child is ill for a long time, he will develop blood stasis, and the intestinal tract will naturally form blood stasis if he is depressed and hot for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to use some drugs that promote blood circulation without damaging the yang. Guizhi Fuling Pills are just right. After the second diagnosis, the child's stool basically cleared every 2 days, and the properties gradually returned to normal. In the later period, do not forget that you need to use spleen-strengthening prescriptions to restore the vitality of the spleen and stomach.
Daily diet structure is very important!
Of course, the most important thing is to advise the patient on the dietary structure and method of the child. When it reaches the stage of feeding on whole grains, it should be fed on grains. The amount of milk must be controlled and must not be exceeded. Our babies with Chinese constitutions It is really not suitable to transition to Western feeding methods. This case can only represent one aspect, and it also shows that laxatives do not necessarily rely on laxatives, but must grasp the physical condition of the child's body. As the saying goes, "To treat a disease, you must seek its root."
