Take it easy: It can take a day or two to recover from a stomach upset. Stick with liquids for now, advance as tolerated to bland foods. Signs that you need medical attention would be fever, worsening abdominal pain, and repeated vomiting. If you are still able to pass gas and do not have those symptoms just take it easy, rest, and let your body heal.

Stomach flu: Your stomach slows down a bit after a case of what is commonly referred to as stomach flu. Try some OTC products with ginger, mint and probiotics to get your gut mucosa heal from the insult. Once your oral intake has resumed you should get 'normal results' back in no time.Feel better!
