A member asked:
Does it cause perminant damage to make yourself throw up just once?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
But why?: Need more info. to answer. Did you use a chemical or emetic to induce vomiting? Why would you do this? Damage, sometimes serious, can occur from purging or repeated self-induced vomiting. Please talk to your doctor if you think this might happen again.

No, however...: Making your self vomit just once should not cause any permanent damage, but the question I have is why do you want to do that even once?
