Suggest Treatment For Sickness Bug Having Bloating In The Abdomen
I have had a sickness bug for 4 days. No diarrhoea. I cannot eat or drink anything (not even water) without being sick again. My mouth seems to be overproducing saliva which is making me feel more sick and I feel really light headed yet strangely bloated around the middle. When will this pass? I was fine 5 days ago, woke up 4 days ago feeling sick - and it hasn't improved or worsened since then.
It is a possible infection involving intestine. Primary guidelines for a better outcome - Drink more liquids in sessions. - Dietary measures with a bland, vegan diet. - Proton pump inhibitor as omeprazole on empty stomach with sips of water with antacid syrup. - Usually 48 hours period after such care is sufficient for recovery, later if a problem should consult your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
