I Started Feeling Nauseaus, Diarrhea. Do I Need To Go To ER ?
Hello, I have an abdominal pain since wednesday night, also I had a diarrhea , vomiting just once. Yesterday, I felt better, but had an abdominal pain. I was lying in bed, drank water, tea and ate rice soup. Today, when i woke up, I had a sore throat and then again I started feeling nauseaus, diarrhea once. Also a week ago I came back from mexico vacation. Hopefully I don t have anything bad from there. Do I need to go to ER ? Thank you in advance for your help.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Are you still vomiting and having diarrhoea. If not then probably you are recovering from the illness. Do try to avoid tea or coffee. Stick to bland food like yoghurt, milk, non-concentrated lemon juice, plenty of water and best of all is WHO-Oral Rehydration Solution. Hydration is the key in proper recovery from such illness. If the stool or vomit is not reducing you may need to go to the ER. Follow proper handwashing procedure before eating food. Eat healthy.

hi ,
welcome to hcm
thanks for the query
first of all you have to rehydrate your body by taking coconut water or ors powder if the frequency of diarrhea is more
avoid tea and coffee now. it can cause gastritis
take light food now. avoid spicy junk food
if you have sore throat it nay be viral or bacterial one.you can take antibiotics if its due to bacterial one
if your vomiting not subsides in a day or 2 you can go to the ER
take care

Hello, welcome to Healthcaremagic. You are probably having gastroenteritis which definitely needs medication. You must visit ER for proper evaluation and treatment. Till than avoid heavy meals and drink plenty of fuilds and take ORS powder to rehydrate yourself. Wish you good health.
