Patient's question:
Newborns develop many red bumps on their faces and bodies within a few hours after birth. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description of the condition, it is likely a case of fetal toxin. You can take some heat-clearing and detoxifying traditional Chinese medicine, and it should not be a major issue.At this age, it is common for babies to spit up milk. This is because the baby's stomach is in a horizontal position, has a small capacity, and the cardiac sphincter (the connection to the esophagus) is relatively wide with poor closure. Meanwhile, the pylorus (the connection to the small intestine) is relatively tight. Additionally, babies often swallow air while feeding, making it easy for milk to reflux into their mouth, causing spitting up.
When a mother first sees her baby spit up milk, she may be very worried and unsure of what to do. However, as long as you pay attention to the following aspects, you can prevent your baby from spitting up milk.
