A member asked:
What are the chances of a toddler aspirating on vomit after becoming sick? if it were likely, how soon would i know and what symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not common: Aspiration after vomiting is always a possibility but is not common in otherwise neurologically intact people. It is usually accompanied by coughing and choking and can result in pneumonia several days later.
