What Causes Nausea, Loss Of Appetite And Vomiting?
Hello, I have just gotten over some sort of viral illness that has left me dehydrated from nausea, vomiting, and very poor intake for two days. I m back to eating, drinking, and urinating again, but I have so many little sharp body aches all over my legs and this recurrent sharp, stabbing pain in my ribs on my left side. It s beneath the armpit but lower where my bra band would lie. Is this just another side effect of dehydration or is it something else? I m 30 years old, female, and a nursing mother.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to the viral infection. I suggest using anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg to relieve the muscular pain. I also suggest to use an electrolyte solution such as Pedialyte. I suggest to rest, drink liquids and eat a healthy diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
