Upset Stomach..anyone have any idea's what could help?

Last night after i ate a salad my stomach started to hurt i ate it pretty fast but i eat alot of my meals fast. It was just a regular ceaser salad it had lettuce which wasn't brown or anything and parmesan cheese on it and ceaser dressing. After i ate i had a little bit of stomach aches.. but then before bed the stomach pains got really bad.. and it hurt worse if i would stand up so i just layed on my stomach.. when i woke up today it only hurts a little bit but i feel nausea.. and i took pepto bismol and ate some toast.. but when i first woke up i had smore pop tarts. I just wanna be better for school tommorow because were doing this really important project and i need to be there.. anyone have any ideas of what i should eat/drink or medicines i should take. to help this go away by tommorow. If you also have any ideas of why my stomach hurts let me no of that too.

Improperly washed lettuce can cause food poisoning, due to impurities in the water used to water it or even poor hygiene during harvesting/processing. Most likely you got bacterial or viral food poisining from it. You will have nausea and diarrhea for a day or so and then be fine. Until you feel better you should limit food intake to mild foods like crackers, applesauce, cooked pasta (no sauce), plain yogurt, etc. Also, take 1 cup water and add 1-2 tsp cider vinegar and take tiny sips of it over the course of a few hours. The vinegar helps to settle your stomach. You should not have eaten the pop tarts! The sugar is going to irritate your stomach. And pepto bismol just blocks your system without actually helping that much. Get some rest--hope you feel better soon.Upset Stomach..anyone have any idea's what could help?
I always find a glass of Schweps Lemonade helps, and so does my lil sis. We always have some in the house for such an emergency.Upset Stomach..anyone have any idea's what could help?
peppermint tea or ginger tea..or even marshmallow root tea (soothes the lining of the stomach).Upset Stomach..anyone have any idea's what could help?
First off nothing is worse than stomach pain well besides a tooth ache, there are a few things it could be. Stomache flu, constipation, or even more serious appendicitis. My friends daughter had a stomache ache and she just held off thinking it was the flu, well by day 4 turned out she had to get her appendix out instantly. Oddly enough her name was bree. WIth her stomach ache, they came and went on and off for days. If it continues for a few more days you should really get it checked out. Better safe than Sorry. Good Luck
I don't know what it might be. You should drink A LOT of gatordade. Because even tho you aren't being active... it evens everything out in your body that is out of whack because you don't feel good.

It could be food poisioning... which would suck. but, you can't really take much for that. you can get a test to see if it is.. at the doctor.

if the pain worsens or doesn't go away by tomorrow afternoon... go to the doctor! they can do a simple blood count and see if there is an infection or an abnormality. cause it might be something with appendix or gallbladder. i hope it isn't.. i've had both.. and both removed

so for now... just eat saltine crackers or ritz and drink lots of gatorade.



good luck and i hope you get better!!!
