4. Vomiting
Vomiting is yet another stomach bug symptom. Urgent medical attention might be required in cases of severe vomiting, especially if a fever is involved. It’s extremely easy to dehydrate during prolonged episodes of vomiting.
The stomach needs to settle after bouts of vomiting, so food and solids shouldn’t be consumed. To keep energy levels up and to stay hydrated, individuals should suck ice chips and sip slowly on healthy drinks.2‘Stomach Flu (Gastroenteritis): Symptoms, Causes & Diagnosis.’ Cleveland Clinic, my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/12418-gastroenteritis.
