Question

Hello. If a baby lies down immediately after feeding and milk comes out of their mouth, even vomiting all the milk they just ate, this is called drug overflow. How should it be cared for?

Answer

Immediately remove the milk from the baby’s mouth and nose; then turn the baby onto their stomach and gently pat their back so that the milk in the nose, mouth, trachea, and lungs can be effectively coughed out; let the baby cry loudly, as crying involves a lot of inhalation and exhalation, which can be used to test if the respiratory tract is clear and can also be used to clear any foreign objects from the mouth of the respiratory tract.
