Suggest Treatment For Stomach Pain And Vomiting

My mother is 84 and has been eating a very bland diet, but last night her stomach began hurting and she threw up a light brown vomit. She has thrown up 4 times in 12 hours, but she says she feels better now, although her stomach feels "tight." It doesn't APPEAR that there is any blood in her vomit, but I am concerned.
