Don't Ignore Your Child's Tummy Troubles
Health & Nutrition|June 2017

Young children are quick to refuse food, eat sweets through the day, pick junk food over healthy greens, and often ingest all sorts of rubbish like paper, tissue and mud.

Don't Ignore Your Child's Tummy Troubles

More often than not, these habits make them sick. Along with fever and vomiting come frequent complaints of abdominal pain. However, you must not easily dismiss the stomachaches as a sign of strange, childhood-eating habits. Your child may be suffering from Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

IBD represents a group of intestinal disorders that causes prolonged inflammation of the inner linings of the digestive tract, including the stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and often the rectum. The condition disrupts the functioning of the digestive system severely and prevents the good nutrients and calories from being absorbed into the child’s body, thus also hindering their normal development and growth.
