Patient's question:
At 3 years old, the baby suddenly vomited in the middle of the night, spitting out everything eaten that evening. Later, they vomited many times, expelling white foam. Whenever they drank water, they vomited again. In the morning, they kept asking for water and only vomited after drinking a little. Their spirits weren’t very good, so I didn’t dare to give them dinner. They kept wanting to drink water and always said their stomach hurt afterward. Their temperature was 35.5°C, and they didn’t have diarrhea, but they had very little yellow urine. Do they need to take medication?Doctor's answer:
Nausea is closely related to the food eaten the previous night. It may be due to food that is difficult to digest, too greasy, or eaten in excess, leading to digestive and absorption dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract and a series of clinical symptoms. For the baby, it is essential to drink plenty of warm water and eat soft, easily digestible foods. It is important to eat less, have more frequent meals, and consume fresh foods. Pay attention to keeping the area around the navel and the soles of the feet warm. It is best to place a warm water bag on the navel when the child takes a nap. If the symptoms do not improve, it is necessary to visit a pediatric hospital for diagnosis. Oral probiotics can be taken.
