Answer
No, the most common cause of nausea and vomiting is infection, which requires a stool test to see if there is enteritis or even dysentery. If there is bacterial enteritis, cephalosporin treatment is needed, and if there is dysentery, you need to go to a infectious disease hospital. Probiotics can be taken to adjust the intestinal flora, nausea and vomiting can be treated with Simethicone for diarrhea relief. Also, be aware of symptoms such as decreased urine output, lack of energy, and poor skin elasticity, which may indicate dehydration. Immediate intravenous fluid replacement treatment at the hospital is needed. Pay attention to eating light, soft, easy-to-digest foods and avoid greasy and irritating foods.
