Patient's question:
The baby is 6 months old··He vomits after drinking milk··All of it comes out in··He also has diarrhea··What could be the reason? It started last night··What should I do··Every time he eats, it all comes out in vomit··Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems most likely that the child's condition is acute gastroenteritis. If vomiting is severe, it is recommended to temporarily fast for a period of four to six hours and absolutely avoid taking medication. The purpose is to allow the stomach to rest fully, which will aid in complete recovery. If the child is extremely thirsty, they can drink a very small amount of ginger and brown sugar water, which may help to relieve vomiting. If drinking water does not trigger vomiting, they can gradually increase water intake in small, frequent sips—avoid drinking large amounts at once, as this may irritate the stomach and cause further vomiting. Once the child stops vomiting, they can gradually increase bowel movements and slowly build up their appetite until they return to normal eating habits. Medication can also be taken.
