Answer

Dry heaving in children is a pathological condition often seen in acute enteritis, gastritis, pyloric spasm, hypertrophy, stenosis, pneumonia, meningitis, and other diseases. Its main features include accompanying nausea, increased abdominal pressure, frequent vomiting, with a large amount of dry heaving often containing milk clots and stomach contents, sometimes mixed with green bile juice. Sometimes dry heaving presents as projectile vomiting. Due to the presence of the primary disease, the child often expresses extreme distress and crying during vomiting. When parents notice their child has symptoms of dry heaving, they must pay close attention and seek medical treatment promptly. In daily life, it’s also important to provide the baby with a comprehensive diet to boost the baby’s immunity. You can try giving the baby colostrum, such as the Soul Yangguang colostrum. In addition to containing abundant high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional ingredients, it also contains active immunoglobulins that can inhibit the growth of bacteria.
