How To Get Rid Of Nausea And Stomach Sickness?

I've been feeling sick to my stomach since late last night but have not gotten sick once yet. It went away for most of the day and I was able to eat but now it's back. I just want to know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to just make myself sick? I've been eating pretty bland things all day so I'm not sure what is causing the nausea.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Nausea could be due to any food which could be causing sensitivity to your intestines, or due to some intestinal infections which might have creeped in from outside food if you are frequent eater from outside. Any dysfunction of live due to inflammation could also give rise to a nausea. If I were your doctor, I would go for a general physical examination of yours apart from some blood tests like a complete blood count, a liver function test, and if need be an ultrasound of whole abdomen. Further management would depend on the reports of investigations done. Till then you could go for a proton pump inhibitor along with an anti emetic drug for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
