What Causes Vomiting?
Question: ijust threw up real nasty of wat i ate ifeel really bad
Brief Answer:
peptobismol or dramamine, rehydration
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Vomiting may be due to different possible causes.
The use of pepto bismol or dramamine may help reduce the nausea and vomiting. You may hold off eating solid food till there is a 4 hour period with no symptoms
During this time , just use enough fluids to prevent or treat dehydration .
The best fluids would be oral rehydration fluids or a sport drink such as gatorade because these would replace both fluids and electrolytes.
Probiotics may also help.
The causes are: (1) food poisoning with viral or bacterial infection, most common cause
(2)side effect of traditional or herbal medication
(3)infections such as urinary infection, hepatitis (liver infection), gallbladder infection etc
(4)reflux
(5)high level of calcium, kidney disease
(6)alcohol
(7)lesion in the brain
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
