Question
Ask: My daughter is 3 years old. She has been sick and the medication hasn’t helped. She still feels uncomfortable. What are the main reasons for baby vomiting?
Answer
Nursing-induced dry heaves are a common phenomenon in the neonatal period. Some cases fall within the normal physiological range and are known as spitting up. However, if the amount and frequency of vomiting differ from typical spitting up, it may indicate an illness, and it is important to visit the hospital as soon as possible. Different causes lead to different symptoms, so patients need to undergo systematic and standardized examinations at the hospital based on their own conditions in order to receive appropriate treatment. In addition, patients should maintain regular daily routines, take good care of their health by staying warm, consume light and soft foods in their diet, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
