Question
Recently, my child has been vomiting after feeding. What medication should I give them?
Answer
Since a baby’s esophageal sphincter muscles are not fully developed, it is common for them to spit up or vomit, which is a normal physiological occurrence and should not be overly worried about. During feeding, it is recommended to adopt the correct position and gently pat the baby’s back after feeding to help reduce vomiting. Additionally, do not overfeed the baby to avoid overeating. If the situation does not improve, consider giving the baby some digestive aids. Also, check the baby’s trace elements such as calcium and zinc to see if there is a deficiency and supplement appropriately.
