In "Ab Wlakn," the child Nour showed signs of fatigue and stomach pain, prompting her teacher to take her to the school clinic. Her mother clarified that Nour suffers from acid reflux, a common digestive disorder where stomach contents flow back into the esophagus, as noted by Hopkins Medicine.
Acid reflux is prevalent in children under two and often resolves with age. Persistent symptoms such as frequent vomiting, feeding difficulties, or breathing issues require medical evaluation.
Causes of Acid Reflux:
-
Weak lower esophageal sphincter (LES) allowing stomach acid to flow back.
-
Certain foods: chocolate, mint, fatty foods, tomatoes, and citrus fruits.
-
Obesity, medications, and exposure to secondhand smoke.
Common Symptoms:
Belching, frequent vomiting, stomach pain, difficulty eating, nighttime coughing, recurrent ear infections, bitter taste in the mouth, dental enamel loss or cavities.
Tips to Relieve Symptoms:
For infants: hold upright after feeding, assist with burping, add rice cereal.
For older children: reduce trigger foods, serve smaller frequent meals, avoid overeating.
