You can be anywhere and might find someone vomiting, at this time, you might feel like; let me show them am an Ardent Tbthealth reader.
Then you go to the patient. Make sure there are witnesses(a must). Don't just jump into the scene like a nuisance, act Poshly; the same way Tobeetoe would behave.
Then you do the below, you can also do this to yourself or anyone.
1st method:
- Have the person drink small amounts of water, sports drinks, or clear liquids.
- If the person can keep it down, give the person light, bland foods like bread and crackers.
2nd method:
- Have the person drink small amounts of water, sports drinks, or clear liquids.
- Don't give the person solid food until vomiting has stopped.
- When the person can tolerate food, try small amounts of the BRAT diet: bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast.
Don't implicate yourself by doing extra first aid measures not speculated here or any other article as it might cause vomit acceleration in the individual.
Now you must See a Health Specialist if:
- You Can't keep down liquids or foods for more than 24 hours
- Fever with abdominal pain
Signs of dehydration (dizziness ; decreased, dark urination; fatigue)
