What Does Projectile Vomiting And Cough Indicate??
I have a 10 month old male who is projectile vomiting after milk feeds... he is quite chesty, teething and coughing a lot. The vomiting started yesterday at childminders, no diahorria and nothing different to normal apart from a bump on the cheek that is now a bruise.

Thank you for consulting in Health care Magic. I need more details:
1.Did he received his vaccination against pertussis?
2.What character of cough, is it most dry or with sticky sputum?
3.Did he have breathlessness on lying flat?
4.Has his cough been finished with vomiting?
5.Is there any relief when she walks outside?
6.Did she eat something spoiled or with dirty hands at childminders?
If she has these issues we should differentiate pertussis, bronchitis, food borne toxicoinfection.
To begin with,give to child econorm(saccharomyces) 1 paket 2 times 3 days.
For cough you can use relent(syrup), clarythromycin,steam inhalation or do inhalation by nebulizer with salbutamol , then after 15 min with ambroxol.
Best regards
