Overview
History and Symptoms of infantile pyloric stenosis
- Babies with this condition usually present within the first few weeks to months of life with progressively worsening vomiting. The vomiting is often described as non-bile stained and "projectile vomiting", because it is more forceful than the usual spittiness (gastroesophageal reflux) seen at this age.
- Abdominal fullness prematurely after meals
- Abdominal pain
- Belching
- Constant hunger
- Dehydration (gets worse with the severity of the vomiting and diarrhea)
- Diarrhea (loose, watery stools)
- Failure to gain weight or weight loss
- Jaundice
- Lethargy
- Decreased urine output
