could be: Usually stomach virus improves after 24 hrs, keep yourself hydrated, eat light meals. If your symptoms persist or you can't hold down food or fluid, pls go and be seen asap to avoid dehydration. Also other xauses of abdominal pains can be ruled out like ulcers or gallbladder stones. Be well.
