Patient's question:
What is the reason for a newborn to vomit yellow liquid and refuse to breastfeed on the fifth day after birth?Previous treatment and effectiveness: The stomach was washed twice.
What assistance is needed: Please help the doctor to explain what is happening.
Doctor's answer:
Nausea with yellow substances should be considered as bile. The child's upper stomach sphincter (pylorus) is underdeveloped, leading to poor digestive function. If the child eats a large dinner and then takes a nap, this situation may recur. Consuming spoiled or cold food can also lead to acute gastritis of the stomach lining, causing nausea.Advice: Try to eat a small dinner (about 7-8 bites), and avoid taking a nap immediately after eating. If nausea occurs again, you can take Metoclopramide Oral Solution.
