What is meant by vomiting and diarrhea?

Vomiting and diarrhea result from viral, bacterial, or parasitic infections which can badly affect digestion. Some medical conditions, food products, and medications also become the cause of vomiting and diarrhea.

Some foods and their ingredients are not easily digested by the gut and trigger reflux (vomiting) and loss of fluids (diarrhea). These may include undercooked food, raw meat, seafood (for some people) high amounts of sweets, and plant contents such as seeds, stems, and leaves. Vomiting and diarrhea are caused by eating contaminated food is often called food poisoning. When a person experiences vomiting and diarrhea at the same time, he is said to have dehydration which is a loss of too much body fluid.

The signs of dehydration usually appear when a person has been low on electrolytes for a while. Immediately contact your doctor whenever you observe signs of dehydration in your family members, especially children and the elderly as they are more prone to it. The emergency aid against nausea and vomiting is intravenous fluid replacement.
