Question

A breastfeeding baby suddenly started vomiting two days ago in the afternoon. Besides milk, there were yellow liquid-like vomiting materials. After vomiting, the baby had a fever. After physical cooling, the baby had a fever again in the morning. After the fever subsided, the forehead was not hot but the hands and feet were warm. The baby kept kicking the blanket while sleeping and increased milk intake.

Answer

According to your description, the child may be experiencing vomiting and fever due to an upper respiratory infection. The test results show that the child’s current condition is basically normal, and you need not worry too much. The child may have enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes due to an upper respiratory infection, which could cause abdominal pain. It is recommended to focus on oral medication treatment and enhance anti-inflammatory drugs. If the baby has no other symptoms besides vomiting, you can temporarily fast for 2-4 hours, but do not withhold water.
