What's wrong with coughing and vomiting

Vomiting when coughing is actually very common in children. If a child has this kind of situation, parents must promptly understand their child's physical condition. Common factors include gastrointestinal obstruction, poisoning, gastrointestinal diseases, etc. Parents must promptly alleviate such situations to avoid problems with the child's absorption.

Because babies are small, their respiratory defense function is not yet complete, and their cough reflex is not sensitive. Their coughing and sputum symptoms are different from those of adults. Small babies will choke when drinking water or feeding. In severe cases, milk will come out of the mouth and nose, making it difficult to eat. If you neglect it, a weak baby may choke on milk and block breathing, causing suffocation and endangering his life. In order to stop the baby's cough as soon as possible, some people take the initiative to use cough suppressants such as Kebiqing, and many people use traditional methods to stew Fritillaria cirrhosa with rock sugar, or stew Fritillaria cirrhosa with raw pears. These practices are inappropriate. To understand this problem, we still have to start with the cause...Don't let your child stay at home all the time. Take him/her out for a walk and get some sun. Of course, we must be moderate, as too much is as bad as too little.

Vomiting is caused by reverse peristalsis of the esophagus, stomach or intestines, accompanied by strong spasmodic contractions of the abdominal muscles, which force the contents of the esophagus or stomach to flow out of the mouth and nasal cavity. Can be divided into:

1. Organic obstruction of the digestive tract: The downward movement of contents of the esophagus, stomach or intestine is blocked and forced to flow backward, resulting in vomiting. Such as congenital digestive tract malformations (occlusion or stenosis in different parts); older children are more likely to suffer from acquired intestinal torsion, intussusception, and intestinal obstruction (such as common ascaris obstruction).

2. Digestive tract infectious diseases: enteritis, gastritis, and appendicitis may cause reflex vomiting due to the irritation of the stomach and intestines by inflammation, often accompanied by abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and bloating.

3. Abnormal body function: If the whole body

In cases of sexual infection or metabolic disorder, it is often accompanied by poisoning symptoms such as fever, loss of appetite, nausea, and abdominal distension.

4. Diseases of the cranial and nervous system: If symptoms of intracranial hypertension, meningeal irritation or intracranial space-occupying lesions occur, central projectile vomiting may be caused. There is no nausea before vomiting, but it is accompanied by other neurological symptoms such as headache, drowsiness, coma, convulsions, etc.

5. Poisoning: Vomiting caused by local irritation of the gastrointestinal tract and the effect of the poison on the central nervous system.

If the child does not have diarrhea, it is a bit like acute gastritis, perhaps because he ate something cold.
