A member asked:

Can i take a shower or bath while vomiting and having diarrhea? p.s i'm having a allergic reaction?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Taking a bath or shower will not affect whatever is causing the vomiting or diarrhea. I trust that you are being treated for your symptoms and the allergic reaction you mentioned. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines.
