Vomiting Causes
Vomiting can occur as a result of ‘morning sickness’ in pregnancy, flu, motion sickness, infection, food poisoning, overindulgence, blocked intestine, illness, nervousness, anxiety, concussion or brain injury and migraines. Vomiting is usually preceded by queasiness in the stomach (nausea), a sensation of biliousness and stomach ache. Children most commonly suffer from ‘stomach flu’ that can also cause nausea and diarrhea.
It is recommended that if vomiting is prolonged and symptoms persist that you consult your doctor for further investigation. If children suffer with vomiting it is advised that extra precautions be taken as dehydration through loss of fluids is a high concern.Tips to alleviate vomiting
- If you suffer from bouts of nausea, limit your food choices to bland crackers, toast, dried fruit, popcorn and granola bars – try to choose things that aren’t rich or too strong in flavor until you feel better.
- Dehydration can be a major factor when vomiting, so try to replenish fluids after you vomit. Take small sips of water or herbal teas and drink water at room temperature, as ice-cold water can be too hard on the stomach.
- If certain smells, tastes, and textures trigger your vomiting, try to limit your contact with these triggers and ask others to be respectful of your feelings.
- Digestive teas such as fennel, spearmint, and chamomile may also be of benefit if indigestion leads to your nausea.
- Learn to relax! Anxiety and stress can lead to nausea, which in turn can lead to vomiting and more anxiety, creating a cycle of stomach upset and emotional distress. Try relaxing in a warm bath or listening to a calming CD.
- If vomiting is brought about by excess alcohol consumption, make sure you are not suffering from alcohol poisoning. Also, make sure you are supervised, as loss of consciousness while vomiting is extremely dangerous!
