Suggest Treatment For Throwing Up Of Bile Juice In A 5 Year Old
My five year old son has been throwing up since 11pm, about once an hour. Bile has been coming out the last few times with a very dark brown blob. This last time was lol dark brown. Should I wait to take him to the doctor in the morning or go to the A&E?

HI...it is a medical or surgical emergency and I suggest you rush him to the emergency room immediately. It could be intestinal obstruction or an intussusception (though rare at this age).
