Can chlorine cause vomiting?

Please don't ignore this. I once ignored constant vomiting after swimming, thinking it was just minor water ingestion, and it turned out to be severe chemical irritation and dehydration. Get checked by a doctor before it gets worse.

Sometimes our bodies reject harsh chemicals to protect themselves. Stay positive, drink lots of clean water to flush out the toxins, and let your body rest. Take care and consult a doctor if you don't feel better soon.

If you swallow too much pool water, the chemicals will obviously upset your stomach and can cause vomiting. It's normal if it happens once, but if it continues or you feel dizzy, don't sit at home, go see a doctor immediately.

Oh, my younger brother had this last summer after he accidentally gulped down a lot of pool water during his lessons. He threw up twice but was fine after drinking fresh water and resting. But if you feel breathless or have a fever, please see a doctor right away.

Don't trust random online tips saying it is just 'normal pool sickness'. Vomiting can be a sign of chlorine poisoning or a bacterial infection from the pool. Skip the internet remedies and verify your symptoms with a certified medical practitioner.
