Brief Answer:
Most likely Gastroenteritis, fluid intake important, takes 3-7 days

Detailed Answer:
Dear patient,

please specify what you mean with upset stomach. I am assuming you mean vomiting/ nausea and/ or diarrhea, feel free to let me know if it is any different.

In most cases that would be a self-limiting bacterial or viral infection. Advisable is enough fluid intake, resting. However, if diarrhea or vomiting would be very heavy and you are loosing too much fluid it is sometimes necessary to give iv fluid in a hospital temporarily. Other than that this is usually self healing within 3-7 days. Against nausea or vomiting you can take vomex pills or suppositories.

Hope this is helping you , if you have any clarificatons you can get back to me, if this was helpful please kindly rate my answer. Best regards
