Biliary dyskinesia in a child can occur for various reasons. Pathology (abbreviated as DZHVP) is manifested in malfunctions of the motility of the organ in which bile accumulates. Hormones secreted by the duodenal mucosa are designed to regulate the contractions of the gallbladder. When for some reason irritation or inflammation occurs in the intestine, the outflow of bile is impaired. Such a factor as immaturity of the nervous system predisposes to the development of DZHVP , which is characteristic of childhood, therefore, the disorder most often occurs just in children.
Causes
As a result of dysfunction of the central nervous system, past infections, diseases of internal organs, malnutrition, allergies and intoxication of the body, biliary dyskinesia in a child may develop. Pathology manifests itself in a hypotonic form, when, due to poor contraction of the gallbladder, bile flows out of it all the time, and hypertonic, when the contracted organ does not secrete it. The causes of such phenomena can be stomach diseases, viral hepatitis, endocrine-hormonal disruptions, intestinal infections, giardiasis. Impaired bile secretion into the gallbladder is also one of the causes of biliary dysplasia. This may occur due to abnormalities in the development of the organ.
Biliary dyskinesia: types and characteristic symptoms
There are two types of HDL. The first - hypertonic-hyperkinetic - is manifested by paroxysmal pains that occur in the hypochondrium on the right side, which can sometimes radiate under the shoulder blade and shoulder. As a rule, soreness occurs after physical activity, malnutrition, emotional stress. At the same time, painful sensations do not differ in duration and are quickly stopped by antispasmodic drugs. During the period of a pain attack that causes biliary dyskinesia, the child may experience anxiety, headache, frequent urination, and nausea. The rest of the time, the baby feels good. But periodically after eating chilled foods or soda, she may complain of a short spastic pain in the right hypochondrium.
With the hypokinetic-hypotonic type, biliary dyskinesia in a child is clinically manifested as non-intense, dull, aching, but most often constant pain in the hypochondrium on the right side. Painful sensations may be accompanied by a feeling of bitterness in the mouth, lack of appetite, and nausea.
Treatment
Regardless of what the symptoms of biliary dyskinesia cause, treatment will be based on limiting physical activity, a sparing diet, and providing positive emotions. A child is recommended a divided five-time meal with the exception of fatty, too spicy, fried foods, smoked meats, and canned foods from the diet. In addition to the diet, drug therapy is prescribed aimed at normalizing the functions of the nervous system.
