Brief Answer:
Seems to be a stomach upset

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for your query.

Most of the symptoms are going with a bad stomach upset (gastritis). This should settle with diet modification (liquids, bland soft food) and supportive medicines like acid suppressants (omeprazole), antacids, anti-vomiting drugs like domperidone.

However, as it is still hurting and you have thrown up green bile, I would also like to exclude a few other things like pancreatitis, gallstones, etc. I assume that you are passing stools normally. So an ultrasound of the abdomen and few blood tests like LFT and amylase, lipase would do the job.

Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer further follow-up queries, if any.
