How to judge whether a child has food poisoning? What are the sequelae of food poisoning?

If a baby eats something unclean, it may lead to food poisoning. The baby's gastrointestinal function is very fragile. Once food poisoning occurs, parents should take measures immediately. So, how to judge whether the baby has food poisoning?

Generally, food poisoning will cause varying degrees of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting and other abdominal discomfort. Abdominal discomfort is accompanied by nausea, followed by nausea and vomiting. Babies with severe vomiting and diarrhea may also suffer from dehydration, acidosis, and even shock and coma.

1. The incubation period is short and the onset is rapid. Many people may become ill at the same time within a short period of time.

2. The patients have all eaten the same food recently, and the incidence is limited to people who have eaten the poisonous food.

3. When you stop eating the food, the illness will stop immediately.

1 Bacterial infection If you are poisoned by eating food that has serious bacterial infection, the biggest sequelae is that the patient's stomach and intestines will be in a state of bacterial infection for a long time, and symptoms such as long-term abdominal distension and diarrhea will appear. If these bacteria are not eradicated in time, the patient may even develop gastric ulcers or digestive tract ulcers. Therefore, after the food poisoning has improved, a detailed physical examination is also essential.

2. Endocrine disorders. Children’s central nervous system will be damaged after food poisoning, especially after eating some poisonous mushrooms. This damage to the nervous and central systems is irreversible. Therefore, even if the patient does not become unconscious or vomit, the patient’s damaged nervous system cannot be restored. Therefore, for a period of time, the patient may experience symptoms of facial nerve disorders or endocrine disorders.

3. Kidney damage: After a child suffers from food poisoning, it will also cause certain damage to other systems of the body, such as the urinary system and kidneys, because the kidneys metabolize these toxins. If there are too many toxins, it is very likely that there will be certain residues in the kidneys, which will also cause damage to the kidneys.

1. Keep suspicious food No matter what kind of food your child has eaten before, once you find that your child has food poisoning, parents should try to keep the suspicious food that caused the poisoning. During the medical examination, it can help the doctor to make a clearer analysis, so that better symptomatic treatment can be given.

2. Induce vomiting in time After food poisoning caused by accidental ingestion, it is necessary to use urging methods to deal with it in time. Generally, food will not be digested quickly after entering the stomach and intestines. Parents can use chopsticks to press the child's tongue to stimulate vomiting, which can expel the residual food in the stomach and intestines and reduce the body's absorption of poisons.

3. Correct catharsis Some people may not experience discomfort symptoms in a short period of time after food poisoning. If the food is eaten more than two hours or even longer, vomiting cannot be used for treatment. Catharsis is needed in time to reduce the intestinal absorption of poisons through excretion.

4. Seek medical treatment For mild food poisoning, vomiting or laxatives can be used to treat it. However, in the case of more serious food poisoning, medical treatment is required in time, usually gastric lavage or enema and other methods are needed to quickly clear the toxins in the stomach and intestines.

Children with food poisoning can be treated with vitamin B tablets, Simo decoction, oral rehydration, Mami Love and other medicines. If the child's food poisoning is bacterial food poisoning, antibiotics can be taken for treatment. For example, cefixime, amoxicillin and other drugs can be taken for treatment. If the child's food poisoning symptoms are more serious, going to the hospital for infusion treatment can achieve good results.
