Should i seek medical attention? i've been sick for 36 hrs with stomach cramping, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea. the vomiting and diarrhea has stopped and i am able to keep water down, but i still have nausea and stomach cramping.

Nausea, : Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea are common symptoms and are usually caused by a short-lived viral illness. The most important thing to do when you are vomiting is to keep stay hydrated. 1.) immediately after you vomit, you may want to give your stomach a break for an hour or two. 2.) after that, you can start with clear fluids such as water, juice, rehydration solution such as pedialyte or broth. If you have diarrhea, just use the rehydration solution as the other three can worsen diarrhea. Take "sips" or take in the fluid using a spoon to avoid a large "gulp" that could trigger vomiting. If you take in a tablespoon of fluid a minute, that can help keep you hydrated. Popscicles are great. 3.) once you can tolerate the clear fluids, you can move on to other fluids or bland foods such as crackers, bread, rice, chicken noodle soup or fruits and vegetables. Nothing too fatty, spicy, or acidic (such as tomato sauce or citrus). 4.) if you are doing well with this, then you can start eating regular food again. 5.) if you vomit, go back to the last step since you might not have been ready to move on. 6.) and if you have no appetite, don't push yourself to eat. As long as you are drinking and staying hydrated, that is the most important thing. While most people do not need to be seen by a doctor, here are a few "red flags" that should prompt you to call your doctor. -worsening symptoms instead of improving after 24 hours -dehydration: if you notice dry mouth, lack of tears, no urine for 8 hours, sunken eyes, rapid pulse or breathing, these are signs of dehydration. -bile (green) or blood tinged (red or brown) vomit -severe abdominal pain, even if it comes and goes -fever more than 102f or more than 101f for a few days -change in behavior including decreased responsiveness i hope this helps!
