I have a cold, but i keep puking, can't keep my food down. any suggestions?

Why puking?: A simple cold doesn't usually make people vomit. Getting at the root cause of your vomiting is usually going to be most helpful in sorting out what to expect - and how to treat it. Food poisoning, viral stomach flu (gastroenteritis), vomiting after coughing, reflux, intestinal obstruction and other things can all cause vomiting.
