Question

A 2.5-year-old baby has a cold at night, with dry cough and vomiting. They throw up everything they eat, have no fever, slight diarrhea, and slightly loose stools resembling porridge. The vomit contains mucus, but the baby’s spirits are good after vomiting and plays normally. However, they vomit whenever they eat anything. Currently, I’m not sure what to feed them?

Answer

Based on the description of the illness you provided, if it is confirmed that the dry cough and discomfort are caused by a cold, it is recommended to take oral Vitamin B6 for antiemetic treatment, and at the same time, treatment for the cold should be considered, which may include taking cold medication or antiviral treatment.
