Hi
Welcome to the healthcaremagic
There could be two cause
1) acute viral gastritis..sometimes it is associated with loose motions later on.it is self limiting.Treatment required is only antiemetic medicine
2)post tussive vomiting.. Caused due to cough reflux.Treatment required is cough suppressant syrup
In your case probability of first case is more
Happy to help you
Best regards
