Suggest Treatment For Food Poisoning
Hello, I have someone with me who might be suffering from food poisoning. He s got abdominal pain, diarrhea, and has been throwing up. I ve been trying to help him to drink water and at this point he can t keep anything down; he goes right to the bathroom within 10 minutes. I m concerned that he ll become too dehydrated; is this an ER situation or is there something we can do at home?

That much committing and diarrhea can easily lead to dehydration . An ER visit is appropriate to get proper care, diagnosis and treatment.
