There is no saying which method is the most effective for vomiting in children. However, it can be relieved by changing position, gargling with warm water, and actively treating the original disease.
1. Change position: When children vomit, parents should immediately keep them in a lying or standing position, with the body slightly leaning forward, in order to avoid the foreign matter vomited will stimulate the respiratory tract or cause respiratory blockage, resulting in asphyxia, shock and so on.
2. Warm water gargling: children need to gargle with warm water immediately after vomiting, which can remove the residual vomit and odor in the mouth and relieve oral discomfort.
3. actively treat the primary disease: for example, acute gastroenteritis, need to use drugs such as cefazoxime, omeprazole and other anti-infective, acid suppression treatment. Intracranial infections, often manifested as projectile vomiting, need to be treated as soon as possible with the full dose of meropenem and other drugs.
To reduce gastrointestinal irritation, no strenuous exercise, such as running or jumping, should be done after vomiting. The child should be observed for an hour, and if vomiting still occurs, or is more intense or frequent, immediate medical attention should be sought.
