Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
Dear Ms XXXXXXX
Babies usually regurgitate small quantity of feeds occasionally. There seems to be no cause for concern. Does she bring up milk after every feeds ?
I would require additional information for me to be able to assist you further
1. Does she bring up milk after every feeds ?
2 Does she strain while passing urine or stools?
3. Does she sleep well after feeds?
4. Is she on exclusive breast feeding or also on top feeds ? If on breast feeding, is the feed adequate?
5. Is there any diaper rash ?
Awaiting your response
Take care
Best regards

No nappy rash.
She just strains alot n sometines before passing stools
It is normal in formula feed babies
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Dear Ms XXXXX
She could be bringing up milk due to
1. Regurgitation
2. Feed allergy
Occasionally bringing up milk is acceptable. If possible let the baby be on exclusive breast feeding
If the passage of stools is regular and not hard there is no cause of concern. Babies who are on formula feeds usually strain while passing stools. I hope she is putting on weight adequately
Wishing you a happy motherhood
Take care

Likely to be staining while passing stools
Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms XXXXXX
It can be either colic or staining while passing stools seen in formula feed babies.
If there are no other symptoms then there is no cause for concern.

MD My daughter was complaining of feeling sick yesterday and was coughing and acting like she wanted to throw up. She threw up a little last night and is still coughing today. She complained that her face was itchy and I noticed she developed a small rash on her cheek near her eye.
MD My 16 month old has an infected crack on his thumb from thumb sucking. It was red and swollen and had small rashy bumps around it. He received a Rocephin shot in the Dr. office and is now on Keflex for 10 days, this is day 3. The same time this infection appeared, he developed a rash on his feet and legs: red, raised bumps, that do not appear to be bothering him. The rash has now spread to his arms, hands, and face as well. He has also started to have freqent explosive diarrhea that has absolutely NO odor. Could all this be related to the infection? No fever, and the rash started prior to any antibiotic use.

MD Hi, doctor My daughter had her 5 year old vaccination on the 10 of January , after a couple of weeks I noticed a red rash on her legs and then her arms and the stomach, basically it spread all over her body except her face. I then took her to a pharmacist and he gave me a liquid form cortazan, medicine name is pre lone , it then started going away and as soon as she was running around and jumping up and down the jungle gyms did the rash come back really aggresively and now on her face it was very red, we then took her to a doctor and he told me she has a allergic reaction to something, but she has never had this before, I never changed her diet or the washing powder, it has been ever since the vaccination. The rash then started going away since giving her the medicine. But 3days now the rash has come back, it goes away and comes back and sometimes worse then the other times, but not as red, but itchy. Please help
