What causes vomiting in children and how is it treated?

Patient's question:

Patient Age: Eight years old (Male) Medical History: Often waking up during the night after falling asleep deeply, first with coughing, then followed by episodes of vomiting. After a moment of panic, they fall back asleep immediately. The episodes always occur at night. The frequency of occurrence varies, sometimes three or four times a week, and sometimes as few as one or two times.

Doctor's answer:

Hello! First of all, I wish your child a speedy recovery! Let me introduce some successful remedies for treating "vomiting":
1) When severe stomach cramps and vomiting occur, taking Yunnan Baiyao capsules can stop the vomiting.
2) Boil hawthorn to make a tea. It can dispel stagnation. If meat and greasy foods cause vomiting after consumption, stop eating.
3) Ginger, bamboo silk, and water can prevent stomach vomiting.
4) When taking medication containing castor oil or magnesium salts, you can chew some hard candy or gum. This can alleviate the nausea caused by the medication. However, diabetics should only use gum.
