Many people have sought medical treatment everywhere, but have not received good treatment.

Many people are eager to find a timely and effective treatment method. So, what is a good way to treat this disease? Let us now learn about the treatment method for spitting up in one-month-old babies.

Treatment:

1. It is recommended to hold the baby while breastfeeding. If breastfeeding in a lying position is necessary, the head should be high and the feet should be low. For breastfeeding, clean the nipples with warm water before each feeding, and hold up the breast with four fingers, with the thumb placed on the areola on the nipple to slow down the flow of milk. For bottle-feeding, clean the feeding utensils with boiling water before each feeding, and feed after the nipples are filled with milk. The nipple hole should not be too large. After breastfeeding, hold the newborn upright and pat its back to help it expel the swallowed air. It is not advisable to lift the newborn's lower limbs to change diapers within a short period of time after breastfeeding.

2. For infants and young children who vomit frequently, if organic diseases and gastrointestinal inflammation are ruled out, most of the cases are gastroesophageal reflux. You can choose the lateral position with the head high and feet low, with the head raised 15°; for children with gastroesophageal reflux, the head can be placed in the prone position, for 20 minutes each time, 2-4 times a day. However, there must be someone to take care of the patient during the prone position to prevent respiratory apnea. This can reduce the frequency of reflux, reduce the number of vomiting, prevent aspiration of vomitus, and avoid aspiration pneumonia and suffocation.

3. Recurrent vomiting and nervous vomiting: Strengthen physical exercise, improve physical fitness, lead a regular life, avoid overeating, try to keep your body and mind calm, and don't force yourself to eat. Also, be sure not to add any stress to the child, as this will make the vomiting worse. Children with the disease should arrange their lives reasonably, including diet, strengthen physical exercise and increase physiological sleep time. People around the child should not pay too much attention to the child's vomiting symptoms and should avoid showing nervousness and worry in front of the child to increase his confidence in treatment. At the same time, keep the environment clean, deal with the child's vomit in a timely manner, and replace contaminated clothes, sheets, and quilts in a timely manner to avoid further irritation to the child. When vomiting, you should stay by the child's side and give him/her mental comfort; after vomiting, help him/her rinse his/her mouth in time, bathe the child frequently, and remove the odor left on the body by vomiting.

4. For children who are prone to vomiting, especially those who vomit after catching a cold or coughing: they should strengthen their nutrition and physical exercise to improve their body's immunity, or take bovine colostrum and transfer factor to prevent colds; meals should be regular and quantitative; do not eat too much; food must be fresh and hygienic; do not feed the child overly spicy, smoked, or greasy food.

5. Children who are prone to vomiting when taking medicine: when feeding the medicine, the liquid medicine should not be too hot or too cold; children who are difficult to feed medicine can also be given small amounts and multiple doses; if necessary, they can take a mouthful and wait for a while before taking the medicine again. After vomiting, clean the mouth, face, and neck skin promptly, and change contaminated clothes and bed sheets.

6. Some children are born with a sensitive pharyngeal reflex, which can easily cause vomiting. This manifests as vomiting when they catch a cold. Therefore, when seeing a doctor, you should explain this to the doctor. At this time, you should eat easily digestible liquid or semi-liquid foods, and don't eat too much, generally about half of your usual diet.
