Vomit

Vomiting is the body's natural way of emitting things in the digestive system. The most common causes of vomiting are gastroenteritis, the stomach flu, food poisoning, overeating, food allergies and over-consumption of alcohol. Vomit is usually made up of partly digested food particles and digestive juices, and exits the body through the mouth.

If you have migraines which cause nausea and vomiting, speak with your doctor. There are versions of migraine abortives and anti-nausea medications which are injection, sublingual, and suppositories.

Why baby vomit by nose?

How old is your baby? My firstborn used to spit up a lot - he would projectile his formula half way across the room! I recommend you mention this to your pediatrician. They will say that a teaspoon of spit up looks like a lot more than it really is, but if you tell them that it's definitely more than a teaspoon - they might be inclined to do some testing. Does your baby spit up like this often? every bottle or just now and then? If it is often and it's a LOT, then it "could" be acid reflux which was the case with my baby. The doctor put him on zantac and the problem disappeared. - We had to suffer through a 24 hour study though before we got the medicine. They put a cord through his nose into his esophagus to monitor the amount of refluxed acid. It was a tough 24 hours, but the medicine made the problem go away.

Why do you have a sour taste when you vomit?

I have had this same problem. Just a week ago or so I over drank some wine and got sick. I believe it maybe the stomach acids have changed or dissolved my taste buds on my tongue. For the last week or so all or some of the water I have been drinking tastes sweet. I believe it will turn to a normal taste with time. Also some people believe its high mineral content in water from certain areas that we live. Another explanation is drinking a lot of diet sodas with artificial sweeteners can change the response in the brain to make you think the water is sweet.
