Bacterial enteritis

In daily life, many children are greedy and may eat many things that they should not eat in the process. This is a very bad phenomenon. Because children often have low discernment and cannot correctly distinguish whether food is safe or not. Children's gastrointestinal tract is not fully developed, so eating some bad food may cause gastrointestinal bacterial infection, which can easily lead to bacterial enteritis over time.

This type of patients often feel gastrointestinal discomfort and feel that they cannot finish defecation. These are the main symptoms of bacterial enteritis. We should pay more attention to children’s adverse reactions in daily life. Next, let us take a detailed look at the relevant introduction about bacterial enteritis through this article.

Fungal enteritis is common in children who are malnourished or have been using broad-spectrum antibiotics for a long time. The frequency of bowel movements increases, to 3 to 5 times a day, and in some cases up to 10 times a day. The stools are yellow, loose, foamy, and contain mucus, and sometimes small tofu-like lumps can be seen. Fungal spores and hyphae can be seen in stool microscopy, and fungal growth may be found in stool culture. The course of the disease is often prolonged and the treatment is more complicated. The following methods should be used to treat fungal enteritis.

(l) Immediately discontinue all broad-spectrum antibiotics.

(2) Take antifungal drugs. For example, nystatin is taken at 50,000 to 100,000 mg/kg body weight per day, divided into 3 doses; clotrimazole is taken at 20 to 60 mg/kg body weight per day, divided into 3 doses. Its side effects include gastrointestinal reactions, and occasionally numbness of the hands and feet, leukocytopenia, etc.; gentian violet is taken orally at 1 to 2 mg/year per day. Children with thrush should first rinse their mouth with 3% soda water, and then apply 1% gentian violet to the mouth, twice a day. Generally, the treatment can be cured in 2 to 3 days; clotrimazole is taken at 20 mg/kg body weight per day, divided into 2 times for intravenous drip.

(3) Drugs that adjust the normal intestinal flora. For example, take 1-2 capsules of Huichunsheng each time, 3 times a day, orally; take 0.5-1 gram of Mia each time, 3 times a day, orally; take 0.3-0.9 grams of Lactase each time, 3 times a day. You can also take folic acid, Bifido, Bacteriostasis, Mommy Love, etc.

(4) Supportive therapy Children with malnutrition need to strengthen supportive therapy, and can receive small amounts of plasma or blood albumin, pediatric amino acids, pediatric fat emulsion, etc. People with anemia can receive repeated small amounts of blood transfusions.

Through this article, we have a certain understanding of the relevant symptoms of bacterial enteritis. If similar symptoms are found in children in daily life, timely care measures should be taken. If the symptoms cannot be controlled, the patient should be sent to the hospital in time. Only with the doctor's diagnosis and treatment can bacterial enteritis be effectively cured.
