A member asked:

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Persistent vomiting: worsening abdominal pain, decreased urine output or inability to maintain oral hydration are some reasons a doctor' s evaluation would be prudent. Early detection of influenza (usually presenting with fever, body aches, cough and sometimes vomiting) is important if you have an interest in using ant-flu medications such as Tamiflu (oseltamivir) because they are most effective when started within 48 hours.
