10 Year Child Having Acid Reflux. Allergic To Milk. Feeling Dizzy And Vomiting. What Care Should Be Taken?
Thanks for the query
It looks like your child is suffering from severe gastritis. He needs to be on a long course of proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole for atleast a month, preferably with a combination of a pro gastric motility agent like domperidone. Please approach a gastro enterologist for the same. For the time being please follow these steps
1. Avoid spicy and food XXXXXXX in fat
2. Let him eat on time
3. While eating he has to eat slowly, for example if he eats his cereals within 5 min, he should now try and eat over 15 min, small quantities of food reduces the chances of him vomiting.
4. Liquids should always be tried before trying solid foods. Avoid juices XXXXXXX in citric acid like orange, lemon, etc
I hope I have answered your query, if you have no further queries please accept my answer.
I wish you good health
Regards
I understand your concern
I have explained in my earlier post on how best to feed him and what foods to avoid.
I recommend you give him a diet XXXXXXX in carbohydrate like banana, cereals, rice, fruit juices etc. Carbohydrates are not as complex as fat, easily digested and more importantly it induces gastric motility and prevents vomiting.
His loss of appetite is primarily because of continuous vomiting, it will take at least a week for the appetite to come back. Please follow my advice he will definitely do better.
I hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to answer any further ones
I wish him a speedy recovery
