Question
The child vomited twice and threw up after drinking water. Today, after waking up at 4 pm, the child threw up all the water they drank. At 5 pm, they ate some porridge, and at 6 pm, they breastfed and vomited again. Now they are sleeping but not comfortably. The possible cause is eating something unsuitable.
Answer
The possible cause is gastrointestinal flu leading to gastrointestinal dysfunction. It is recommended to take Shanyao Jianpi Oral Liquid to aid absorption, along with Huoxiang Decoction. The diet should be light to allow the gastrointestinal system to rest and to drink plenty of water. It is suggested to undergo intravenous treatment in the morning, as oral medications are easily vomited, especially those that are irritating to the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, antibiotics should be taken, and foods difficult to digest should be avoided. When sleeping tonight, it is advisable to sleep on the side with the pillow slightly elevated to prevent choking on milk.
