Doctor's answer:
Nausea in children is a pathological phenomenon, commonly seen in acute enteritis, gastritis, pyloric spasm, hypertrophy, stenosis, pneumonia, meningitis, and other diseases. Its main characteristics include concurrent nausea, increased abdominal pressure, frequent vomiting of milk, and a large amount of dry retching, often containing milk curds and stomach contents, even mixed with green bile. At times, dry retching may resemble spitting. Due to the underlying disease, the child often exhibits expressions of pain and crying that go far beyond the vomiting itself. When parents notice dry retching in their child, they must pay close attention and seek medical attention promptly.
