Why Does Child Vomits After Meals And Has Lost Weight?

Brief Answer:
weight loss is serious.. evaluate further
Detailed Answer:
I would not have worried about short term history or marginal weight loss. This is a serious matter and cannot be explained by acidity or infection.
This child will need a test called barium swallow followed by meal if any thing is blocking his food pipe. Also look for any tonsils or swallowing difficulties. Send me a pic of child standing with chest shown open for a better idea if anything else is obvious.
Thanks.. hope his tests won't be delayed.
Please get back with details.
