Patient's question:
My daughter is only two and a half months old and often has difficulty breathing. Sometimes her mouth and face turn purple. The doctor checked and said it was due to a relaxed esophageal sphincter and did not provide treatment, saying it would be fine as she grows older. However, since yesterday, her vomiting has become very severe, and she can hardly eat. Could this be dangerous? Is there any...Doctor's answer:
Is the child still vomiting now? There are many reasons for vomiting in infants. It can be due to internal diseases (such as gastroesophageal reflux, pyloric stenosis, pyloric spasm, enteritis, etc.). It can also be due to surgical diseases (such as hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, gastric volvulus, diaphragmatic hernia, intestinal malrotation, etc.). If the vomiting is severe and persistent, contains bile or feces, and affects the child's growth, it is more likely to be surgical. Different causes of vomiting require different treatments. It is recommended to seek medical attention at a specialized hospital for a clear diagnosis and then treat the cause. The above is advice for the question "About pyloric relaxation in children." I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
