Does Inducing Vomiting Lead to Cancer?

Questions

Can frequent vomiting lead to cancer? What should one be cautious about after vomiting?

Answers

Regular vomiting does not lead to cancer, but chronic vomiting can cause some complications, such as upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Vomiting after a heavy meal can harm the stomach. Prolonged vomiting may lead to gastroesophageal reflux, which over time could result in anorexia. If one mistakenly consumes toxic or spoiled food, it can cause vomiting, which helps expel toxic substances. It is recommended to stop vomiting, pay attention to a light diet, and consume foods that nourish the stomach, such as millet congee or yam congee.
