Can Vomiting And Stomach Cramping Be Due To Food Poisoning?
My son (21 years old) drank beer from a Miller Lite Home keg. He drank two glasses, the second one tasted funny. I brought the keg back to the store for a refund. When I got back home my son felt extreemly bad. 3 hour later and he is vominting and having stomach cramps. Can this be food poisoning
Yes, your symptoms seem to be related to food poisoning. Some advices that I can give to you are: -Avoid food for the first few hours as your stomach settles down. - Drink water, broth, or an electrolyte solution, which will replace the minerals that you lose with vomiting and diarrhea. -Eat when you feel ready, but start with small amounts of bland, non-fatty foods such as toast, rice, and crackers. -Get plenty of rest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
