Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach has a dull ache, and sometimes I experience heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it got better for a while, but then it started again. Can I breastfeed with acute gastroenteritis during lactation?Doctor's answer:
If acute gastroenteritis reoccurs during breastfeeding, it is recommended that you visit the gastroenterology department of a local reputable tertiary hospital for some thorough examinations. During this period, breastfeeding is not recommended. Additionally, it is advisable to ensure adequate rest and good deep sleep during this time, and to follow medical advice for symptomatic treatment. In addition to treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a cheerful mood, as only a positive mindset can help you recover quickly from the illness.
