What should I do if my baby who is nine months old doesn't eat and vomits?

Patient's question:

Baby is nine months old. Last night, I took her out for a walk, but the weather was very cold. I was afraid she would get hungry on the way, so she cried for ten minutes. As soon as we got home, she started nursing. Three times during the night, she dry heaved and then vomited after a short nap. This morning, her condition wasn’t great, but she perked up in the afternoon. However, after eating milk in the afternoon, she vomited again. In the evening, she was in great spirits but vomited a lot after nursing. She felt much better after vomiting. She doesn’t have a fever. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the baby may be refining coolness, with dry retching caused by a relatively cold stomach, only when he is in a good mood and not crying. You can give the baby a hot water bag to apply cold compresses to the abdomen, and for Dinggui abdominal patches, you can apply one. You can give the baby more hot water to drink, and if he still vomits tomorrow, take him to the hospital for a thorough examination.
