What Causes Acid Reflux In A Child?
My son is experiencing symptoms like acid reflux. He s spitting up food, generally at night before bedtime, but also does have spitting up during the day too. I took him to the doctor. His exam was fine. Doctor suggested either seasonal allergies (don t think so) or possibly lactose intolerant. We ve removed dairy. Started him on Pepcid AC, and it s still happening. Thoughts? We have made an appointment with a Gastro...but wondering if you have any insight based on what I ve described. Thank you.
