Patient's question:
A newborn has been vomiting yellow liquid containing milk for half a month. Due to jaundice and lack of bowel movements, they have been taking probiotics and Yinzhihuang oral liquid. Their mental state is good. Is it related to the medication?Doctor's answer:
Vomiting is the most common symptom of vomiting in children. Vomiting not only causes great distress to the child but also affects the child's diet. Parents are also very anxious about this, so parents should learn to initially determine the cause of vomiting. The main reasons are: 1. Improper feeding or diet: Overfeeding during the neonatal period, inappropriate milk formula, swallowing a large amount of air while drinking milk; infants and young children eating too much food at one time or eating food that is difficult to digest. 2. Abnormal digestive function: Systemic infectious diseases, such as upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, pneumonia, sepsis, high fever, nausea, and loss of appetite, often accompanied by vomiting.
