Feeling Bloated, Vomiting, Watery Stool. Treatment?

Hi, a few nights ago I suddenly had to vomit , vomited a ton. The next 2-3 days felt bloated, then passed a small stool . Now stomach fills up full of so much gas it looks and feels like I am pregnant again. Passing a ton of air and then just recently going to the bathroom and excreting a ton of green watery stool. No fever or chills. My husband had this a week ago.

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Such symptoms can be caused by gastrointestinal infection. It is usually caused by bacterial or viral infection of the gastrointestinal tract. Most of such infections heals by its own and no medical attention is required. However if the symptoms are present for longer than 48 hours (especially diarrhea) you should see a doctor.

Bloating and vomiting can be also caused by bowels obstruction due to inflammatory bowels disease for example. This is a serious condition which should be ruled out at first.

I suggest you to visit your doctor, have physical examination, blood work, abdominal X-ray and ultrasound and stool tests.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
