CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to cure stomach pain conveniently and effectively

How to cure stomachache conveniently and effectively

Stomach pain can have several causes, but most are caused by acid reflux. This is when fluids from the stomach flow backward into the esophagus. These digestive fluids contain hydrochloric acid (HCl), a corrosive substance used in industry to clean metals. Although the stomach has a protective membrane to protect it from acid, the esophagus lacks this protective layer. Therefore, when acid flows back up into the esophagus, it can cause burning sensations, sometimes so severe that you would think you were having a heart attack.

The most common cause of stomach pain is overeating, but it is not the only reason. Some people do not overeat, but still suffer from stomach pain. In fact, stomach cramps have nothing to do with food. Most of them are caused by mental reasons. Anger, mental tension, excessive stress, etc. may cause stomach cramps. Regardless of the reason, everyone hopes to relieve the pain as soon as possible. The following are some useful suggestions. If you can take them seriously, I believe it will be of great benefit to your stomach.

Family treatment measures

● Avoid overeating

When there is too much food in the stomach, stomach acid is forced into the esophagus. The more food in the stomach, the more stomach acid is forced into the esophagus. Stomach pain can have many causes, but for those who suffer from it occasionally, it is most likely due to eating too much and eating too fast.

Do not lie flat

When you feel uncomfortable, you may want to lie down and rest, but don't! Stay upright so that the stomach acid can stay in the stomach more easily. When you have to lie down, such as when sleeping, it is best to raise your head about 10-15 cm. You can use stones to support the bed legs or put them under the mattress. Raising the pillow is not effective. This will make you sleep in a slightly tilted position to avoid recurrence of stomach pain.

Taking medication

Antacids sold in pharmacies can quickly relieve discomfort for people who occasionally have stomachaches. Most of the various digestive aids sold in pharmacies are safe and effective. Antacids often recommended by experts are mostly a mixture of magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide. The former can easily cause constipation, and the latter can cause diarrhea. The combination of the two just neutralizes each other's side effects. Although mixing these two ingredients rarely has side effects, it is not appropriate to take them continuously for more than one and a half months. This is because the effect of antacids is so strong that it may mask more serious problems. Experts believe that although liquid antacids are not as convenient as tablets, they are usually more effective.

●Don’t eat dinner before going to bed

Never eat dinner within 2 hours of going to bed. A full stomach plus gravity will promote the reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus.

●Remove stress from your life

Stress is a major culprit for stomach aches. Learning some relaxation techniques can help restore balance to your body's chemistry if it's out of balance.

●Weight loss

If there is too much fat accumulated around the waist, it will compress the stomach, causing gastric juice to flow into the esophagus. In addition, loosening the belt can relieve heartburn, and you can wear overalls instead.

●Be careful with certain medications

Some prescription medications may make heartburn worse, including some stimulants and sedatives. If you are suffering from heartburn and are taking a prescription medication, ask your doctor to evaluate whether it is appropriate.

▲90g of cuttlefish bone, 30g of Fritillaria, 30g of licorice. Grind the three herbs into powder. Take orally 3 times a day, 4g each time. This prescription is suitable for stomachache, vomiting acid, vomiting blood, etc.

▲120g of dandelion (fried until charred), 27g of brown sugar. Grind the two ingredients into powder. Take 3 times a day, 9g each time. This recipe is suitable for stomach heat pain.

▲6g of nutmeg, 6g of amomum villosum, 3g of magnolia officinalis, and 3g of cloves. Grind the above medicines into fine powder. Take twice a day (morning and evening before meals), 2g each time (add 6g of brown sugar). This recipe is suitable for stomachache that occurs when cold weather strikes.

▲9g of dried orange peel, 20g of Rhizoma Corydalis. Stir-fry the two herbs with vinegar and grind them into powder. Take 2g 3 times a day. This recipe is mainly used to treat stomachache and hyperacidity.

▲12g of licorice and 20g of dried orange peel. Grind the two ingredients into powder. Take twice a day, 2g each time. This recipe is mainly used to treat stomachache

Gastric disease is 30% treatment and 70% care. What the above two said is very good and applicable.

It depends on the cause of your stomachache. If you want to slowly treat it, I suggest you drink a cup of honey (i.e. honey mixed with water) every morning when you wake up and eat on time. I have been doing this for about a year and it feels good.

My grandma's hometown has a folk remedy that is very useful. It is to eat peanuts without cooking or frying them, but you have to eat them frequently, preferably every day, for it to be effective!

Fry rabbit liver in peanut oil. It is best to use domestic rabbit liver. Eat it several times in a row. My dad has eaten it and he has not had pain for many years.

, Learn about cats

For every cat owner, it is necessary to understand what normal behaviors cats have, which behaviors are normal behaviors of cats, and which behaviors require the owner's guidance.

First of all, we can't expect to train cats the same way we train dogs. Unlike dogs, cats form a society by respecting their own territory, not by respecting the leader like dogs do. So if you want to train cats by being superior or intimidating them, it will only make them hate you more and avoid you, and it will not change their behavior at all.

Even the most well-behaved cats sometimes cause a little damage to the house. At this time, we need to be more tolerant of their occasional mistakes like we are tolerant of our own children. Cats are like children. Most of the time, we spoil them, but sometimes we also need to discipline them appropriately. But never use force or fists, which will only backfire. Give cats time and be tolerant.

The following principles may help cats reduce damage to your home.

1. Cats hate being startled, water bottles, loud clapping or other sudden noises, such as the sound of a heavy book falling to the ground. You can use these sounds to stop your cat from doing something you don't want him to do. But you have to make the noise while your cat is "doing something bad" so that they will associate the annoying noise with what he is doing.

2. When a cat does something wrong, push its face with your palm, and then say "no" loudly and sternly. The tone of this voice should be completely different from the tone you usually use when you pet them and play with them.

3. In fact, the most important principle is the so-called "baby principle". Cats, like babies, do not have much ability to control their behavior. When you have a cat, you can imagine that you have a baby crawling around in your home and cannot control itself. Then put all dangerous things away where they cannot find them. Put things that are easily broken in the cabinet, put food where they cannot reach, and replace the trash can with the type that requires a foot to step on the lid like in the hospital.

In short, if you can teach cats in the right way and treat their behavior with the right attitude, they will not bring trouble to your family. Instead, they will become your best companion when you are happy or sad!

2. Understand cats and get along with them better

• About cat behavior

1. Relaxed and calm mood - the cat lies or sits, pupils shrink into a straight line, eyes half open or even completely closed. It will easily wash its face and ears with its front paws. It will lie down and stretch its whole body forward, or curl up. When it is full of sleep, it will stretch its front legs with the front legs low and the back legs high.

• Rubbing your body against someone is a sign of affection

The so-called "cat body language" is that cats use their ears, tails, fur, mouths, and bodies to express their moods and desires. If a cat stays at your feet or beside you and rubs its head against you, it is a sign of affection. If a cat rubs a scent secreted from its mouth onto you, it means it wants to possess you. If a cat makes a gurgling sound in its throat, it means it is in a good mood. If a cat bends its front feet inward like a duck hatching eggs, it means it is at ease and dependent.

5. How to prevent cats from scratching the sofa?

Scratching is a cat's nature and cannot be changed. However, cats do not scratch other places, but they like to scratch the sofa. It is very annoying that the newly bought sofa is already covered with scars after a short time. As a cat owner, you must first respect the cat's nature; secondly, in order for the cat to live more harmoniously at home, you can take some measures to change the bad habit of the cat scratching the sofa.

1. Trim your cat’s nails regularly

Cats sharpen their claws to sharpen their nails. Regular trimming can reduce damage to furniture and prevent them from scratching people.

2. Prepare something for your cat to grab

This is the most important principle. Since a cat's nature cannot be changed, it is very important to provide a cat with another place to sharpen its claws while prohibiting it from scratching one place!

You can prepare a scratching board for her (preferably made of natural materials, such as hemp rope, wood, etc.), fix it vertically, and then train the cat to go there to scratch. If necessary, you can use some catnip to attract the cat to scratch. You can also buy cat scratching boards sprayed with catnip on the market, and most cats like to use them. In addition, some grass mats made of natural materials are also the favorite of some cats, such as the craft grass mats that can be bought at IKEA. Some cats will consciously scratch on them.

3. Prepare a water gun and teach her a lesson when she tries to scratch the sofa

Cats are very afraid of sudden "attacks". When a cat is about to scratch the sofa, use a water gun to "spray" it, and the cat will run away in fear. Use this method several times, and the cat will form a conditioned reflex: scratching the sofa = being suddenly attacked by an unknown object, and naturally the cat will give up the sofa. This method once helped a cat who had been scratching the sofa for 7 years to change his bad habit, and the sofa was finally safe after moving :)

The spray of the water gun is harmless to the cat, it just serves as a warning. However, be careful not to spray water into the cat's ears.

4. Spray lemon water on the sofa where she likes to scratch

Cats don't like the smell of lemon water, and they also hate water with orange peels. Other smells that are not popular with cats include floral water, wind oil, etc. When cats smell these smells when they go to sharpen their claws, they will definitely avoid them.

If you are also troubled by your cat scratching the sofa, you might as well try the above suggestions. If you do all of these, then your cat will have a new pleasure of sharpening its claws while your sofa will also be safe. For other tips on solving the problem of cats scratching the sofa

• While providing it with a place to scratch, put double-sided tape on all the places on the sofa that cats like to scratch. Cats don’t like the sticky feeling. (Provided by: Cat Lover)

•A simple method for lazy people: put a thick magazine on the sofa, and when the cat scratches the sofa, suddenly hit the sofa with the magazine. Hit it in front of it, and it will be scared away immediately. It works after a few times. My BF cured all my cats in this way. (Provided by: Wu Tu)

How to train a cat not to scratch furniture?

Cats like to use their claws to scratch objects, such as tree trunks or wooden objects. Sometimes they also scratch on the ground. When scratching, cats secrete a sticky and smelly liquid. During the scratching process, the liquid is rubbed on the surface of the scratched object. The smell of the liquid will attract the cat to come to the same place to scratch again. If domestic cats are not trained carefully, they often scratch furniture and floors.

Before training, you should prepare a wooden pole, 70 cm long and 20 cm thick, and fix it upright near the cat's nest so that the cat can scratch it. The texture of the pole should be solid. When training, bring the kitten to the pole, grab the cat's two front legs with both hands, and place its two front paws on the pole to simulate the cat's scratching action, so that the secretions of the glands on the cat's feet can be smeared on the pole. After many trainings, coupled with the attraction of the smell of the secretions, the cat will scratch on the pole, and after forming a habit, the cat will no longer scratch on the furniture.

For cats that have developed the habit of scratching furniture, you should first cover the furniture with plastic cloth, wooden boards, etc., and then place a solid wooden post or board in an appropriate position in front of the furniture. Then use the same method to train the cat to scratch on the wooden post or board. After the cat has developed the habit of scratching on the wooden post or board, you can slowly move the wooden post or board to a place you think is appropriate. The distance between each wooden post or board should not be too large, 5 to 10 cm is appropriate, and you should not rush.

You can also try this method for furniture.

What cats should and should not eat

Cats are carnivores. Meat and fish are high-phosphorus foods, rich in animal protein, but if they only eat these foods, they will lack calcium. In addition, to prevent constipation in cats, you can feed them some vegetables and fruits, such as spinach. At the same time, the author has mentioned the importance of water and amino acids in the previous article, so I will not repeat it here.

Ideal cat food should contain nutrients such as vitamins, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, amino acids and protein, and should be cooked in a light manner. Cats' diets are different from humans', so we cannot use our own preferences as cat food.

The following table can be used as a reference:

Ideal food for cats - well-cooked beef, pork, chicken breast, eggs

Prohibited food ---

• Irritating foods, such as pepper, mustard, chili oil

• Fatty foods

• Food that is too cold or too hot - cats' tongues are sensitive to heat and their bodies will reject food that is too cold or too hot.

• Viscera - contains vitamin A, too much can damage the cat's joints

• Onions – can damage red blood cells and cause anemia, which can lead to death in severe cases

• Seafood such as octopus and squid – cause indigestion, vomiting, and in severe cases, death

• Biscuits and sweets – can easily cause tooth decay

•Chicken bones and fish bones – difficult to digest and may even hurt the stomach and intestines

Now let me introduce some recipes for you.

1. Chicken:

Ingredients: 3 liang chicken breast, 2 eggs, 13 spices, chicken essence, a little salt

Method: Chop the chicken into paste, add eggs and seasonings, and steam in a shallow plate.

•Chicken and liver:

Ingredients: 3 ounces of chicken breast, 2 chicken livers, 1 egg, and the same seasonings

Method: Same as above

•beef:

Ingredients: 2 ounces of beef tenderloin, 1 ounce of lean pork, 1 egg, and the same seasonings

Method: Same as above

• Fish:

Ingredients: 1 pound of fresh crucian carp, scaled, gilled and intestines removed. Seasoning remains the same

Method: Put it into a pressure cooker, add a small amount of water, and simmer for 1 hour until the fish bones can be crushed into powder by hand.

Generally, the owner can do it twice a week, and each time can be eaten for 2-3 days (put in the refrigerator), twice a day, and each time is limited to eating until full. Feed cat food at any time.

•ball:

Ingredients: Salty bread, sliced ​​(or steamed), meat filling (pork, beef, lamb, chicken, fish paste or chicken liver paste)

practice:

Let's talk about how to make fish paste: It's best to choose grass carp (silver carp is also OK) and remove the head (you can make soup for yourself^_^) Slice the fish into two pieces along the fins and bones from the back. Remove the bones from the piece with bones. Put the fish skin down and the meat up. Use the back of a knife to gently beat the fish meat, then scrape off the fish paste. Repeat this process until only the fish skin and bones are left. (It's a bit troublesome, but there will be no fish bones^_^)

My son loves to eat fish, but he is allergic and will have diarrhea if he eats too much. So I usually add some other meat fillings to the fish paste.

Let's talk about the seasoning of the meat filling: I always mix several kinds of meat filling together. Add an egg, chicken essence, salt (a little), sesame oil (or peanut oil), and stir thoroughly.

Last step: cut the bread into small pieces (preferably cubes) and wrap the meat filling around them, with a diameter of no more than 3 cm. Place on a plate and steam or microwave.

•Another great meal for Mimi:

Ingredients: chicken breast (one piece), chicken liver (two pieces), minced meat (2 taels, pork, beef, or lamb are all fine)

Method: Boil the chicken breast and liver in water until soft. Chop them into small pieces. Mix well with the minced meat. Steam for 15 minutes. It is ready when it is cool. Seal the rest in a bottle and store in the refrigerator. Eat within two days. Usually, after it is cool, I will add two teaspoons of calcium powder, one teaspoon of cod liver oil, and grind Centrum tablets (2 tablets) into powder.

• Homemade cat food (I):

I don't agree with kittens eating canned cat food. My cats' canned food is made by myself. Cat food must be eaten, which contains a lot of crude fiber and helps digestion. In fact, sometimes we are too worried about kittens, afraid that they don't eat well or are not full, which is not necessarily a good thing. For kittens, it is better to be hungry than to be full. The food should not be too mixed and must be easy to digest. My cat canned food is small crucian carp stewed in a pressure cooker.

Some cat lovers advocate using marine fish to cook for cats, saying that it has fewer bones. But I think fish bones and fish bones are very helpful for calcium supplementation. Crucian carp is fresh, which is always better than the so-called "quick-frozen" marine fish for a period of time. But cleaning such a small crucian carp is a test of patience. Remove the scales, gills, and intestines, and don't be careless. Put it in a pressure cooker, add water to slightly cover the fish, add a little chicken essence, salt, and thirteen spices. Simmer on the fire for at least 1 hour. At that time, use your fingers to pinch the bones on the belly of the fish (that is the least likely to rot on the fish), and it should be easy to crush. When it cools down, put it in a well-sealed bottle and put it in the refrigerator. It can be stored for a week. Heat it in the microwave when you want to eat it.

Normally, I only prepare cat food and clean water for the cat. I feed her fish once in the morning and once in the evening. The amount is not large, just enough to make her 80% full. In addition to fish and cat food, I almost never give the cat anything else to eat, especially when her stomach was not very good some time ago.

• Homemade cat food (Part 2):

Ingredients: Chicken breast (1 piece), beef tenderloin (2 taels), chicken liver (1 piece)

Method: Chop the ingredients and stir. Pour into a bowl and steam in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes (without adding any seasoning, including salt)

2 • Chicken Bibimbap (Highly Recommended)

Ingredients: whole chicken breast, white rice, canned cat food (any flavor is fine, depending on what the cat likes)

practice:

1. Chicken processing: Chicken breast is chosen because it has no bones and is easier to handle than chicken legs and chicken wings. If the chicken is frozen, soak it in cold water to thaw it in advance. After thawing, cut it into finger-length strips.

2. Put the chicken in cold water and bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat. Poke some small holes in the meat with a fork. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes over low heat until the chicken is cooked through.

3. Cut the chicken into small pieces of half a centimeter square and mix them into the rice. The ratio of rice to chicken is two parts rice to one part chicken. If you are extravagant, add more chicken! (Be sure to mix it evenly so that every grain of rice is covered with meat; otherwise, the picky cat will eat all the meat and leave the rice).

4. Add some canned cat food and mix well. You don’t need to use too much canned cat food.

Haha, it probably has the most worms in its stomach, and there may be a fierce struggle in its stomach and intestines. It’s okay, you can prepare some clean drinking water for it, and feed it when it shows signs of being hungry. It will be fine in a day or two.

Is this the anthelmintic for children? It shouldn't be a problem. Don't feed it yet and observe if there is anything abnormal.
