Question what are the signs of acid reflux?
im thinking that my almost 6wk old son might have it. he eats about 4oz out of a playtex drop in bottle and he hardly burps every time. a few times he has threw up alot and sometimes he spits up but not on a daily basis and its only like once a day if he does. sometimes when he almost spits up it gives him the hiccups. do you think this could be acid reflux? if so, im gonna call his pediatrician tomorrow. thanks!

Best Answer Our son had reflux when he was 4 weeks old. He did alot of the same things you just described. He would eat about 2-4 oz, but he'd burp. And throughout the day he'd throwup. Even if it was an hour or two after he ate, it would just come back up. Our doctor put him on Zantac. He took that until he was about 9 months old. I then thought I'd quit giving it to him because I hadn't noticed him acting the way that he did. He hasnt had any problems with it since, and he's 11 months old now. Babies can out grow reflux, so hopefully if your little one has it, he outgrows it too. Good idea to call his pediatrician though. They will help you.

Question Can voice/ vocal nodules mimic the signs of acid reflux?
If a nodule goes untreated could it cause reflux?

Best Answer Nodules have their own symptoms and are cause specifically by damaging the vocal chords in a way that builds up callouses (yelling, poor singing) Yet acid reflux CAN affect your singing. The acid in your throat and mouth can be aspirated into your trachea and begin to limit your vocal range. A doctor can be the best one to evaluate your voice and solutions
