About Vomiting

There are many causes of vomiting. Food poisoning, motion sickness, emotional stress and early pregnancy are common culprits. But vomiting can also be a sign of a much more serious ailment including brain injury, meningitis and appendicitis. It’s important to always beware of the dehydration that can accompany vomiting. When recovering, avoid solid food until the vomiting has passed. Gradually drink water and clear liquids. A rehydrating drink that replenishes electrolytes is recommended. A Doctor On Demand physician will be able to get to the bottom of what has caused your vomiting and help you feel better.
