How to help child with acid reflux?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
GERD : If the child is an infant, there's not much to do, until they outgrow it. You can help the symptoms by giving baby smaller feelings, and burping frequently. Your pediatrician can also prescribe medicine to help the pain, from heartburn, that happens with GERD.
