I had a sudden, severe pain in my side yesterday, and then I ended up vomiting. The doctor said it could be kidney-related. Do kidney stones commonly cause you to vomit?
Yes, the severe pain often causes vomiting. Sip on some warm water with a bit of ginger juice to help soothe your stomach. But please go to a clinic if you cannot keep water down, as dehydration makes stone pain worse.
The nervous system reacts strongly to kidney pain, which triggers the stomach to spasm and throw up. During such times, focus on quiet, relaxed breathing to calm your nerves. Please rest and let your body heal gently.
Vomiting is a very common response to the intense colic pain of a kidney stone. However, it can also indicate a blockage or infection in the urinary tract. You should definitely get it evaluated by a doctor to avoid any risks.
I made the mistake of ignoring the nausea and vomiting, thinking it was just food poisoning. It turned out my kidney was severely blocked and swollen. Get a proper scan done immediately if you are throwing up.
Yes, they do. When I was admitted, the doctors explained that the nerves of the kidney and stomach are closely connected. Make sure to ask your doctor for a reliable anti-vomiting medicine along with your painkillers.
Yes, the intense pain can make you feel very sick and vomit. Please try to rest as much as possible and seek medical advice for relief.
Oh absolutely, they make you throw up your dinner and your peace of mind at 2 AM. The pain is so bad that your stomach just gives up. Keep a bucket close by and pray for the morning to come fast.
I threw up twice yesterday because of the intense back pain. Did this happen to anyone else too? I am so worried that the stone is getting worse.
Yes, it causes vomiting and that might require an emergency injection. To save on hospital bills, ask your local clinic if they can administer the basic anti-emetic prescribed by your doctor before running to big emergency wards.
Don't panic, vomiting is just your body's natural response to very high pain levels. It happens to almost everyone who gets a kidney stone attack. Let's get you to a doctor who can give you some quick relief.
Yes, it is super common to throw up because the pain can be quite intense. Just try to stay calm and sip some water if you can. Get well soon.
Just got over a 6mm stone last week and yes, the nausea was terrible. I threw up twice during the peak pain phase before the hospital gave me an IV. It gets much better once the pain is under control.
