How Can Nausea With Vomiting Caused By Water Ingestion Be Treated?
My daughter is 14 very active and not overweight. While playing basketball she will get nauseatted when she drinks water. She has vomitted after the games which is mostly water. We have been trying to hydrate her the day before games so that she is not dehydrated going into the games. She doesnt seem to have any problem at practice but she watches the amount of water she intakes during practice. The symptoms eventually subside after the games. Should I be concerned about this condition and what can I do to keep it from occuring?

Dear Parent,
Nausea and vomiting during a specific activity raises the question if your child really enjoys the acitvity and is willing to engage in it. Talk to your child about it. However if this is not the case consult your pediatrician who can examine your child and do basic blood tests like blood sugar, electrolytes to rule any medical abnormality.
