When to worry about vomiting?
I've been vomiting since morning, maybe ate something bad yesterday. It's not stopping and I'm starting to feel quite weak. At what point does vomiting become a serious concern that requires medical attention?

Honestly, if it's more than once or twice, especially with fever ya weakness, definitely check with a doc. You don't wanna get dehydrated. For me, if I vomit, I usually take it easy, no exercise for a day or two until I feel 100%.
Look, if it's just a one-off thing after eating something bad, maybe wait and see. But if it's non-stop, accompanied by severe pain, high fever, or you can't keep any liquids down, that's a red flag. Get to a clinic, don't delay.
Please, please don't rely on internet remedies for vomiting. It can be a symptom of many things. If it's persistent, ya it has blood, or you feel very dizzy, just go to a doctor. Self-medication can be dangerous.
Good advice from everyone here. If you can't keep water down, that's serious.
My doctor always told me that if vomiting is accompanied by severe abdominal pain, a high fever (over 102F), confusion, or signs of dehydration like less urination, it needs immediate medical attention. Also, if it lasts for more than 24-48 hours, even if mild, consult a physician.

Vomiting na, it can be scary sometimes. If it's very frequent, like you can't even drink water, or if you see blood, then definitely go to the doctor. Ho na, better safe than sorry, especially if you feel very weak.
