What Causes Vomiting And Loose Stool Despite Normal Blood Work?

I took my son to the hospital earlier (he is 22) because he vomitted about 10 times today and his stool has the consistency of water. They discharged him with nausea medicine. His CT scans were clean, blood work clean and so on. He now has a fever of 101 and it increases every time we check it. Recently we remembered he has been complaining about ear aches for months. Should we return to the ER and have him further evaluated?

Hello,

Most probably it is due to gastroenteritis and will improve with antibiotics.

Consult a pediatrician and get evaluated.
