Hey, take a deep breath and don't panic. This is usually just a standard stomach infection from something bad you ate. Keep sipping ORS water slowly to avoid dehydration, and if it doesn't settle down by evening, we should definitely show it to a doctor.
Ah, the classic double trouble of stomach upset! Your body is basically doing a complete system reboot after some bad food. Just stay close to the washroom, drink your electro powder, and let a doctor fix the code for you.
I totally get it, dealing with both vomiting and loose motions at the same time is so physically exhausting and miserable. It makes you feel completely drained of energy. Please don't force yourself to eat heavy foods; just focus on hydration and consult a doctor soon.
Please do not worry too much, as a calm mind helps the body heal faster. Such stomach purges are nature's way of throwing out impurities sometimes. Rest well, drink plenty of water, and consult a good doctor for medicine.
Oh no, having both vomiting and diarrhea is absolutely exhausting. Hope you feel better soon and please see a doctor if it doesn't stop.
I was researching this because my cousin got sick yesterday. Apparently, viral gastroenteritis, bacterial infections from street food, or even contaminated water are the most common causes. It's best to get a doctor's advice rather than waiting it out.
This usually happens when we accidentally consume food or water contaminated with bacteria. I always stick to simple homemade curd rice and boiled water during such stomach bugs. Since it can cause severe dehydration, please consult your doctor immediately.
