The acid ingestion might have caused injury to babies mouth and stomach and food pipe (esophagus). It will take time to heal and after that the baby should be fine. If there are any complications or not in the future due to ingestion of acid will beknown as she grows up. It all depends on the amount of injury caused by the acid ingestion. Since she has been discharged within 3-4 days so I expect she will do fine in the future.
