Gastroparesis is a condition in which the stomach muscles do not work properly. As a result, food empties from the stomach very slowly, or not at all. Children with this disorder may feel full all the time, be very nauseous, have pain or vomit undigested food left in the stomach.
Signs and Symptoms. Symptoms of gastroparesis can range from mild to severe, depending on the individual. The most common include nausea, vomiting, and early satiety. Since food doesnât move through the stomach at a normal pace, many patients report feeling full and bloated after eating.
