Treating Acid Reflux In Children July 31, 2007

Posted by Wen in : Acid Reflux , trackback

Acid reflux in children is so common that many people aren’t aware that it is happening. In many cases, gastro-esophageal reflux happens rapidly, with the acid coming up into the esophagus and then quickly going back down into the stomach. In these cases, no damage to the esophagus occurs.

Acid reflux in children can cause the stomach acid to stay in the esophagus, which damages the esophagus lining. In some cases, acid reflux in children causes the stomach contents to go all the way out into the mouth, which is then swallowed again. When this occurs, the child might develop a chronic cough, raspy voice, or become hoarse.

Other symptoms of acid reflux in children include difficulty in swallowing, wheezing, or recurring pneumonia.

    The effective cure for infant acid reflux is a thickened formula. This could be done by adding cereal into the baby’s food.
