What Causes Throwing Up Of Food In A Toddler After Every Course?

My son who is 5 has been throwing up while eating and I cant seem to figure out why this is happening, he has had no fever and after he throws up he still wants to finish the rest of his food. In the morning just thinking about food will cause him to throw up. He does have a sensitive gag reflex. How do I get him past this and should I talk to his pediatrician?

Hi thank you for querry,
As you mention that your child regurgitate all the time and vomit after food.
history and examinayion is helpful in such condition.
vomiting particles mixed with or colour matter because there are lot of reason
narrowing of lower end of esophagus,pyloric obstruction may be the reason.
hyperactive gag reflex may be the reason.
give him syp.domperidon if he still vomit than consult your pediatrition for prompt diagnosis and treatment.
