Nausea and Vomiting

Experiencing nausea or vomiting is not pleasant, but in most cases, these conditions will go away on their own. However, there is the possibility that these symptoms indicate a more serious issue is present. When throwing up becomes prolonged, it could cause dehydration which can be detrimental to your health if left untreated.

Bayside Urgent Care Center is located in Clearwater, Florida, and we’re always accepting new patients. No appointments are necessary.

Some of the causes for nausea and vomiting:

One of the most important things to do when experiencing nausea and vomiting is staying hydrated. When you aren’t feeling well you may not want to put anything in your stomach for fear of throwing it back up. To handle this try occasionally sipping water. This can help you to stay hydrated without further upsetting your stomach. Drinking clear liquids, like broth or a sports drink, can help replenish the electrolytes you’ve lost. Nibbling on something plain like toast or a cracker can help soothe your stomach and reduce the feelings of nausea. Getting plenty of rest and replenishing your fluids is important.

A short bout of queasiness or throwing up is not something to be concerned about unless it becomes prolonged. If you experience nausea and vomiting for more than 48 hours, it’s time to get medical assistance. Visit us at Bayside Urgent Care Center if you’re experiencing these additional symptoms:
