Nausea For Three Days, Vomiting After Eating, Happens At Night And Afternoon. Causes?
Question: NauseaFor the last three days I have been throwing up everything I eat I throw up but it only happens at night sometimes in the afterboon whats wrong with me
Hi and thanks for the query.
Postprandial vomiting may be because of -
1) GI causes like gastric or duodenal ulcer, hypomotility of the stomach or esophagus and conditions like achalasia or high gut obstruction.
2) As a reflex to any painful disease like cholecystitis, pancreatitis, uretric colic, appendicitis and so on
3) Systemic illnesses like renal dysfunction and uremia, hepatitis.
These can be differentiated by a good history (onset, precipitant, associated symptoms, content of vomitus), examination and some investigations (like xray, serum creatinine, sodium, potassium, liver function tests).
I would suggest you to get examined by your physician and get these investigations done to arrive at diagnosis. Treatment will follow according to cause.
I hope, I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you have no follow up queries.
Regards.
