What Causes Vomiting After A Deep Tissue Massage?
My husband had a deep tissue massage yesterday and cupping. He has a history of kidney stones but hasn t had an attack for a couple of years now. Is it possible the therapist could have triggered the start of a kidney stone attack or nursed the kidney? My husband has thrown up most of the day. Threw up twice after trying to take Tylenol 3 for the pain. It hasn t gotten worse but has been off and on today. Should we go to a hospital?

Hi,
It might be due to renal stone and not related to massage.
He can consider antiemetic like Domperidone for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a urologist and plan for an ultrasound scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
