19-month-old boy, nearly four months with nausea, bloating, and a gurgling stomach

Patient's question:

A 19-month-old boy, who has been experiencing daily nausea for nearly four months, has been vomiting and then swallowing it back up. He also has bloating and sometimes his stomach makes gurgling sounds. The symptoms are lighter during the day and worse at night. He is not particularly chubby, eats normally, and has normal bowel and urinary functions.

Doctor's answer:

It may be caused by gastritis and requires medication such as oral antibiotics, acid-reducing drugs, gastric motility drugs, and gastric mucosal protectants. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, cold, and greasy foods. Eat meals on time. If the effect is not good, have an endoscopy and ultrasound examination at the hospital.
