A member asked:

If you are constipated for a week, could this cause severe diarrhea and vomiting?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

People with irritable bowel syndrome can go from constipation to diarrhea but vomiting is unusual. If your intestinal situation doesn't normalize, get evaluated by your physician or a gastroenterologist. Any appropriate testing will be ordered. If vomiting persists or if severe abdominal cramping or distension occurs,proceed to the ER for prompt evaluation.
