Hi, my 3 year old daughter had surgery this morning under light anesthesia.. A bilateral endoscopy with removal or foreign object in nasal cavity... She hasn't been able to hold anything down. Her vomit is very thick & it blocks her airway, & she gets choked on it.. Has also been saying her stomach hurts.

It ll be little post anesthesia effect. It ll get better in a day or 2.
Next Steps
You can give her steam inhalation which will help to reduce the swelling of inner layer of nose (mucosa) and help her to breathe comfortably
