Patient's question:
The baby is 1.5 years old. They had noodles for lunch and a few raisins in the afternoon. Around 7 PM, they started vomiting. At 9 PM, they went to the hospital and received an anti-emetic injection. At 12 AM, they drank some millet porridge and vomited again. At 3 PM, they drank some water and vomited again. They went to the hospital for an IV drip. When they returned home, they gave the baby two spoonfuls of water, and they vomited again. The vomit was slightly yellow, like bile. What should we do?Doctor's answer:
Friend, your baby has frequent vomiting. If the disease factors are ruled out, the baby is very prone to spitting up due to physiological characteristics (the stomach is horizontal, the lower esophageal sphincter is loose, and the upper esophageal sphincter is tight). Additionally, some rare cases of vomiting are caused by congenital gastrointestinal developmental abnormalities, and this type of vomiting is often accompanied by a spitting-like motion. Friend, based on your description, it is recommended that your baby visit a regular hospital's pediatric department for a follow-up examination to identify the specific cause of the vomiting. Only in this way can effective treatment be implemented.
