Patient's question:
Why does the baby keep vomiting but nothing comes out? It's just that he keeps retching. What's the reason for this? He has a little cough. In the afternoon, I gave him a little medicine prescribed by the doctor. Is it the effect of the medicine, or is it because I took some cough medicine? Is it serious? What is the cause? Should I go to the hospital?Past treatment history and effectiveness: He used to have similar symptoms, but not as frequently.
What kind of help do you need: Is it serious? What is the cause? Should I go to the hospital?
Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello, based on the medical history you provided, there are several possible reasons: 1. Indigestion or gastrointestinal dysfunction, which generally causes symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, and may initially manifest as dry heaving. 2. Coughing or coughing up phlegm reflexively stimulating the vagus nerve, leading to vomiting. 3. Medication side effects, as some medications can cause gastrointestinal irritation, such as azithromycin. 4. Infectious brain diseases, which are less common and typically.Suggestions: 1. It is recommended that you carefully read the medication instructions for the baby's medications. If there are gastrointestinal side effects, change the medication promptly. 2. Pay attention to changes in the baby's condition, especially whether the vomiting is projectile, the characteristics of the stool, and urine output. 3. Oral digestive aids, such as Lactobacillus GG and Smecta, can be taken. If there is no improvement, it is advisable to take the baby to a doctor in a timely manner to avoid delaying the condition.
