Patient's question:
After feeding, the child will feel nauseous and vomit dryly but won't bring anything up. In recent days, the past treatment and its effects: none. Regardless of what kind of assistance is needed: What is the cause and how should it be handled...Doctor's answer:
Nausea and vomiting could be a symptom before spitting up milk. In fact, it's highly likely that the reason for spitting up milk is physiological, but it hasn't been vomited out yet. The infant's cardiac sphincter function has not yet fully developed, so vigorous movement or coughing after feeding may cause vomiting again. Avoid overfeeding. After feeding, it's best to have the child lie on an adult's shoulder and gently pat their back to help expel the air they swallowed. When lifting and putting down the child after feeding, be gentle and minimize movement. Avoid excessive shaking. Pay attention to ensure the child sleeps on their side during naps, and when vomiting occurs, quickly lower their body and tilt their head forward to help them spit out. If not attended to promptly, the milk may come out through the nose. This can easily lead to choking, respiratory tract aspiration, and even recurrent pneumonia, which may result in breathing difficulties and life-threatening risks. It will gradually improve on its own after 4-6 months.
