Should I Be Concerned About Vomitings Of My 8 Year Old During Night?
My daughter who is 8 has been vomiting at night but has no fever and during the day acts completely normal. She has cough and is slightly congested. I have given her Claritin and couch/decongestion. What else should i do? Should I take her to the doctor?
VOMITING AT BED TIME CAN BE CAUSED BY GERD WHICH THOUGH RARE IN CHILDREN CANNOT BE IGNORED
IF SHE IS VOMITING DAILY AT NIGHT YOU NEED TO CONSULT A DOCTOR SO THAT A PROPER EVALUATION CAN BE DONE BUT IF IT IS A SINGLE EPISODE THAT MAY NOT BE OF MAJOR CONCERN
HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
