Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would like to know:
-how long has she been ill?
'-has she lost any weight?
-does she take any medicines?
-does your daughter vomit at other times?
During the night awakening her from sleep?
Early morning?
-headaches or change in vision?
-any family history of vomiting or abdominal pain?
-what does "Fri k"(at the end of description of daughter's problem) mean?
If she vomits directly after eating and vomitus contains undigested food, the cause could be from the esophagus. Should the vomitus contain food and begin several minutes after eating or later, the source is likely in the stomach. Pain that worsens with food can suggest one cause while pain relieved by food might mean another.
The pain's location is also significant-around the navel, lower belly, upper right side.
I hope her symptoms will resolve soon.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any further questions,
I will be happy to help you.
