What causes children to vomit? This is the truth!

Children's digestive systems are very fragile, and a little carelessness in their diet may cause harm, so children often vomit. Many young parents don't know what to do or what causes it.

1. Gastrointestinal obstructive vomiting is caused by congenital gastrointestinal malformations or acquired gastrointestinal obstruction.

(1) If a baby vomits in the neonatal period, it may be due to esophageal atresia, gastric torsion, pyloric spasm, pyloric valve, duodenal atresia or stenosis, annular pancreas, intestinal malrotation, jejunal atresia or stenosis, rectal and anal malformations (including anal atresia or stenosis, etc.), gastrointestinal duplication malformations and meconium peritonitis.

(2) Intestinal obstructive vomiting in infants and young children, congenital pyloric stenosis, delayed effusion of the pyloric ventricular system or pyloric spasm, intussusception and acquired intestinal volvulus.

(3) Vomiting in childhood may be a physiological reaction caused by external intestinal wall compression, adhesions left over from meconium peritonitis, etc.

2. Infectious vomiting is caused by upper respiratory tract infection, pneumonia and gastrointestinal infection.

3. Vomiting caused by central nervous system diseases, various encephalitis, meningitis, cerebral hemorrhage, brain tumors and intracranial hypertension.

4. Nutritional and metabolic disorders: infantile beriberi, uremia, metabolic acidosis, and diabetic ketoacidosis.

5. Vestibular dysfunction and Meniere's syndrome may be caused by discomfort caused by riding in a car or airplane, etc. This symptom will be relieved a little without treatment, depending on the actual situation.

6. Drugs and poisons irritate the gastrointestinal tract.

7. Other cyclical vomiting and recurrent vomiting.

Clinical manifestation: Vomiting is only a symptom, which brings great pain to the children. Before vomiting, the patient is pale, has upper abdominal discomfort (children often complain of abdominal pain), has anorexia, and vomits after eating or drinking. Protrusions sometimes come out of the mouth and nose. When vomiting is severe, the child will show clinical symptoms of dehydration and acidosis, such as thirst, oliguria, listlessness, red lips, and deep breathing. The causes are diverse and are accompanied by symptoms of the primary disease.
