Why my baby frequently vomits after feeding?
Hello doctor,
My 3-month-old baby is sick. He is not taking breastmilk but drinks a little water by spoon. He has loose motions. I have tried few medicines but he has not stopped vomiting frequently after feeding. I have tried giving antibiotics twice but it increased the loose motion and it does not go. Sometimes, he murmurs during sleep. He is fussy, needs company and want us to play and talk with him all the time. He feels comfortable only on sitting or lying on our shoulder. Please help.

My son throws up once in two days. What could be the reason?
Hi doctor,
My son is 3 years old. His weight is 33 lbs. He frequently throws up like once in two days or more. He often complains of a tummy ache and asks for water. Sometimes, water helps but at times it does not and he vomits after that. He is active and fine otherwise. Also, while traveling, say like for 45 minutes in the car if he travels, then he complains of nausea and tummy ache. This episode is then followed by loose motions for two to three days.
Thanks.

Hello doctor,
My 3-year-old daughter has a fever and wheezing but no cough for the last two days. A doctor prescribed Asthalin Syrup, Omnacortil solution, Monticope, Lecope, and Paracetamol.
