Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Staphylococcus infection will not cause nausea to you.

But antibiotics taken by you can cause nausea because of gastritis.

I advice you to take the pantoprazole tablet under your doctors guidance. This is anti acidity drug. Prevents acidity to you. Take this drug half an hour before the meal.

Avoid heavy eating at single. Instead you can eat small frequent diet.

Walk a while after a meal. This allows the food to go down in intestine lumen preventing reflux of food from stomach.

You can alternatively drink freeze cold milk to prevent acidity.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
