Can A Bite Cause Vomiting?

My nearly 3 year old daughter was bitten by something last week on her thumb and last night she was up for 5 hours vomiting. It was yellow foamy frothy vomit. Today she hasn t eaten anything at all. Could the bite have something to do with the vomit or is the vomit something to be worried about

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Some spider bites, dog bites, or some insect bites can cause such thing most of the times it might not be because of bites and because of unknown intake of poisonous substances. Rush to the emergency department .first he or she needs a stomach wash and the vomiting content will give you some clues.
