Patient's question:
My daughter is only 39 days old. In the past two days, she has been vomiting milk very severely, with milk spraying out of her nose. She eats and then immediately vomits. What could be the reason for this? What should I do? Should I take her to the hospital for a check-up?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, there are many reasons for retching. The most common cause of retching is improper feeding. You can sit up and feed the child, feed in small amounts and multiple times, and after finishing the milk, hold the child down and pat them. If this doesn't relieve the issue, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital to check for congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Additionally, the mother should also pay attention to her diet during the day.
