What to do if your baby catches a cold and vomits? An old Chinese doctor will teach you a folk remedy

Because babies are not fully developed, their physical fitness is weak, and their own resistance and immunity are relatively poor. If they are not careful, they may catch a cold. The most common symptom when a baby catches a cold is vomiting. What should I do if my baby catches a cold and vomits?

1: You can use warm water at about 38℃ to fill a hot water bottle and use it to warm the baby's tummy. If you are afraid of scalding the baby, you can also rub your palms together to warm the baby's tummy.

2: Cut a slice of ginger and heat it slightly in the microwave until it is not too hot to touch. Fix it on the baby's belly button with medical tape. Apply it before going to bed at night and remove it the next morning.

3: Press and rub Zusanli: Zusanli acupoint is located four horizontal fingers below the outer kneecap and on the edge of the tibia. Use the tip of your thumb to gently press and rub the Zusanli point for children 100 times each.

4: Press and push the Tanzhong point: The Tanzhong point is located at the midpoint of the line connecting the two nipples of the child. Use the spiral surface of your thumb to push from the Tanzhong point on the child's body downwards to the navel 100 times.

5: Eat warm food: such as stewed cabbage, sticky millet rice, etc. These foods can warm the baby's stomach and relieve stomach discomfort symptoms.

6: Drink more warm water: Warm water can make the baby's gastric juice secretion normal. Drinking more warm water can suppress the feeling of vomiting and alleviate the baby's spitting up problem.

7: Seek medical attention: If the above methods are used but the baby's vomiting symptoms are still not alleviated, and the vomiting is frequent, with yellow-green or coffee-colored liquid, or accompanied by fever, diarrhea and other symptoms, you should go to the hospital for treatment in time.

Or massaging the stomach can effectively relieve the symptoms of vomiting. If the baby's spitting up does not improve and is accompanied by pathological symptoms, you need to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.
