Question
A two-year-old child has been vomiting in the morning and still feels unwell after noon. Eating causes vomiting, while not eating is normal. What could be the cause?
Answer
Vomiting in young children is often related to acute gastroenteritis or gastroesophageal reflux disease. It may be due to an infection affecting metabolism or the intake of unclean food. Persistent vomiting could indicate a gastrointestinal disorder.
