Can a fever make you vomit?
Since yesterday, I've been down with a fever and feel quite nauseous. My stomach feels upset, and I'm wondering if a fever can cause vomiting.

Yes, absolutely, kids especially tend to vomit when they get a sudden high fever. The key is to keep them hydrated with tiny spoons of ORS every ten minutes instead of forcing them to drink a lot at once. If the vomiting is non-stop, please consult your doctor immediately.

The body has its own way of releasing toxins and resting itself when we fall sick, so vomiting can happen during a fever. Please stay calm, keep a positive mind, and rest as much as possible. Do seek medical guidance to help your body heal smoothly.

I can only speak from my own experience, but whenever my fever crosses 101, I almost always feel like vomiting. I usually just rest in a dark room and take small sips of water. I am not a doctor, so definitely consult one if it doesn't get better.

You can try smelling a fresh lemon or sipping ginger-infused warm water to settle your stomach during a fever. However, vomiting can cause rapid dehydration, which is very dangerous. If you cannot keep even water down, please go to a doctor without delay.

As if the body aches and shivering weren't enough, our stomach also decides to join the party and make us vomit! Yes, it happens, especially with high temperatures. Keep things light, rest, and do not hesitate to call your family doctor if it gets out of hand.
