How To Treat Headache And Bloating After A Day Of Stomach Virus?

Hi, I had what seemed to be a stomach virus on Thursday due to throwing up, fever, headache, and body aches. The throwing up and fever subsided by Friday but the headache continues and I have terrible bloating and I am constantly burping. Also my stomach constantly hurts but I find relief only when sitting down. If I am standing it hurts and if I am laying down it hurts. But not too bad when sitting. Eating helps momentarily and then I feel very nauseous after. Also certain smells are bothering me. Can you help me? And as a side note I started birth control 3 months ago and had some issues with that but the nausea would go away fairly quickly without any of these added symptoms
