What should I do if I drank some milk after yawning and then vomited?

Patient's question:

In the morning, when the child just woke up and was yawning, my mother-in-law gave him a sip of milk. At that time, the child seemed unable to swallow it, and soon his face turned pale. I immediately held his head down and tried to pat him, but it didn’t come out. So, I held him upright, and for about two minutes, I was very anxious. Later, when I saw that he seemed fine, I noticed he still wanted to sleep, so I put him down and fed him breast milk. After he finished eating, he showed an unusually painful expression, and then milk sprayed from his mouth, with some coming out of his nose. I quickly held him upside down and patted his back, and the milk came out.
If this situation occurs again, what is the correct way to handle it, and how should I resolve it? After the child fell asleep, will there be any aftereffects when he wakes up? Please advise the experts, thank you.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to carefully check whether there may be a zinc deficiency and whether there may be digestive problems. It is suggested to take oral gluconate of zinc and Shanmai Jianpi oral liquid for a try. To make the child eat well, attention should also be paid to the method. Some children have picky eating habits, and parents become very anxious. In order to coax the child to eat dinner, some parents use toys to distract the child during meals, while others allow the child to play while eating... Excessive indulgence by parents and a lack of understanding of proper feeding methods are also direct causes of children's picky eating.
Guidance: Create a relatively quiet environment for the child to defecate, allowing him to have a relaxed and pleasant bowel movement. The digestive system is affected by emotions; when a person is tense, it can lead to a decrease in appetite. Therefore, when the child is defecating, adults should avoid loud laughter and, more importantly, should never tease the child to make him do this or that.
The above advice is for the question "Yawned, drank a sip of milk, and then vomited." It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
