How to Treat Vomiting at Home

Feeling queasy and uncomfortable? We've got your back! Say goodbye to stomach pain and nausea with our top tips for at-home relief.

In most cases, vomiting is not serious and will stop on its own. It usually only lasts a day or so.

You may find you can’t stop vomiting. Vomiting usually happens because the body wants to rid itself of harmful or irritating substances in the digestive tract. After it does that, the vomiting will ease up.

Try these tips to ease belly pain:
- Rinse your mouth well after vomiting. Sucking on a hard candy will help your mouth taste better.
- Dehydration is a common — and potentially serious — side effect of vomiting. Sip clear fluids — such as water, flat ginger ale, or herbal tea — to rehydrate. You also can try sports drinks or a formula like Pedialyte to replenish electrolytes.
- Sit up and take deep breaths.
- Rest. You’ll need to take a break from most activities until you’re feeling better.
- Eat small portions of bland foods — cereal, rice, plain chicken, toast. Wait at least half a day after vomiting to eat a solid meal.
- Try over-the-counter motion sickness medicine. These drugs can help calm your stomach when traveling by car, bus, boat, or airplane.
- Try nibbling on saltine crackers. If you’re having morning sickness, eat a cracker before you even get out of bed.
- Avoid strong smells that can trigger nausea, like perfume and smoke.
- Stay away from spicy, fried, or fatty foods. Likewise, don’t drink alcohol, caffeine, or carbonated drinks, which can upset your stomach more.

wake up, play video games, eat, the sense of doom, the watering, the "dry-fire" gags, the vomit comes out, the involuntary gags, the happiness, the hungriness, the candy, the crackers, the water, the video games, sleep is how an average sick day goes

i am about to throw up and i'm very scared because i'm alone and it's only 5am and i'm 12 years old and i'm having diarrhoea at the same time and i have a fear of vomiting

I never get sick like this anymore tbh like I never get stomach issues that make food come up but I used to get carsick when I was younger and I threw up almost every time. It is not a good feeling, I just remember it burning and tasting horrible. I feel so bad for those going through this, and I hope y’all feel better! I never throw up now but I do get nauseous and get that feeling when I eat too much. I normally swallow aggressively to stop myself from throwing up if I ever feel it. If you ate something bad, don’t try to prevent yourself from throwing up though. I only do this if I eat too much at a time. Throwing up is a natural function that can help you get harmful substances out of your system. If you can, suck on digestion medicine and idk why but I used to hum whenever I felt like throwing up. It kinda helps.❤❤❤

[Meow_cinnamonroll]

Or drink warm water with a bit of baking soda, it helps me sm and it calms down acid refluxes, which cause throwing up and you might burp a lot
