Every child has mucous glands in his nose and throat. Normally, this mucus does not cause too much problems and drips unconsciously from the back of the throat into the stomach. But when the glands begin to secrete too much, or when the mucus becomes unusually thick, the child will have a leak behind the nose, which sometimes makes the child's stomach uncomfortable.

sinus drainage and subsequent gastric pain may have multiple causes, so it is usually best to make an appointment with a doctor. Anything from the common cold to allergies to sinus infections can cause these glands to secrete excess mucus. Even things placed in a child's nose can increase mucus production. Uncontrolled excessive drainage can lead to stomach discomfort, sore throat and persistent cough. < p > < H3 > liquid < / H3 > < p > When you manage sinus drainage, fluid supplementation can sometimes alleviate nausea in children. Additional fluids help to dilute mucus, which prevents many complications. The Cleveland Clinic points out that refreshing fluids are the best, but those sweetened fluids calm the abdomen better than other fluids. In addition to reducing nausea, supplemental fluids can also prevent dehydration if stomach discomfort causes vomiting in children. But don't give your child too much liquid at a time. It will cause his stomach to expand excessively and make the symptoms worse. Rest is like liquid. Rest is very helpful to improve children's stomachache. But don't let the child lie down. Instead, raise his head 12 inches higher than his feet. This will not only reduce nausea, but also prevent excess mucus from flowing to the back of the throat.
