Mgt: The treatment may be related to this symptom. With vomiting there can be irritation of the esophagus or stomach lining. In addition, if he has low platelets or abnormal coagulation studies this can cause or contribute to the problem. I would advise being seen in the ED and requesting the studies above. A virtual appointment for follow up may be booked online.
