Why Is My Son Vomiting Only Liquids?

Thanks for your query.
Your son probably has Jaundice. Jaundice are of 3 types.
1. Pre-hepatic : Mostly occurs in Newborn
2. Intra-hepatic : Occurs due to infection of liver
3. Post-hepatic : Occurs due to obstruction of bile
So your son is suffering from either of the later two condition.
It will be very helpful for me in understanding your son's condition better if you could answer some of these questions:
1. Does he have fever ?
2. What color is his urine ?
3. Does he complain of generalized body itch ?
4. You have said vomiting only liquids, so is he able to eat properly ?
5. Are you able feel any mass on the right side of the abdomen just below the chest ?
6. Any other symptoms you might have missed to mention ?
If you have any reports or images, kindly send it to " YYYY@YYYY " with subject line as "ATTN - Dr.Tulasi Raman.P"
Awaiting your reply,

Thanks for following me up.
I do agree with you as a possibility of GERD being the chance here can not be ignored.Since he has yellow tinge in the eyes I consider there is a need for the liver pathology to be ruled out.
Kindly give me the details I asked in my last post and if you have got LFT ( Liver function tests ) done amongst the blood tests , do share the report with me.I shall then be able to rule out Jaundice, consider the GERD and advice you on the same.
Anticipating your response.
