A member asked:

I am trying to get over having enteritis.how long does it take to be back to normal. still having the bile looking stool and vomit. a week later.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastroenteritis: Speed of recovery depends upon the cause. If this is viral or uncomplicated food borne issues it should clear up in 5-7 days. You are now at the outer limits and if does not get better in the next day or two would definitely recommend that you see a doctor. Best wishes for a rapid recovery.
