Vomit bleaching blanket???!


Question: Vomit bleaching blanket!?!?!?
My son woke up this morning and threw up!. I cleaned him up and calmed him down!. A little while later I went to get his sheets to put in the wash and I noticed his little blue blanket was bleached where the throw up was!. It seriously looks like I put bleach on it!.!.!.It was a fairly dark blue blanket and it turned to pink then white!. Has anyone ever known this to happen!? Was it just the acid in his stomach or is it something else I should be concerned about!? He acts fine, he does have a congested cough though!. I'm not even sure why he threw up!. Thanks for your help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Its just acid!.!.!.whatever comes out of your stomach!.!.!.vomit has acid in it!. Thats what turned the blanket white like it was bleached!. You know your stomach uses different acids to break down foods right!?!.!.!.!.yeah!. Its normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

In our bodies there is a part called the mucus elevator!. This is the Mocrovilli in your tracheal that elevates the mucus up to the junction of the esphogus and trahea!. Once the mucus reaches here we caugh it up!. When we are asleep we can't caught the mucus up so it goes down into our stomach!. This is probally why he throw up!. Now the bleaching of the blanket, I am not sure of, it could have been the acid in stomach that did it!. Your stomach acid a pH of around 2, so it is very acidic, I hope that helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
