In addition, the use of alcohol and drugs leads to additional symptoms: constipation, nausea, bad breath. Intoxication provokes a violation of the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. Under the influence of harmful substances, the tissues of the abdominal cavity begin to weaken, useful substances are poorly absorbed into the intestines,resulting in constipation. Often adults develop diarrhea after drinking large amounts of alcohol (especially beer and various alcoholic cocktails).
- Wrong diet. The modern rhythm of life, to which a person is accustomed, does not allow to eat normally, since there is very little time left for cooking the right food and he althy rest. People prefer to spend most of their time on work, doing business, resolving issues, so they almost do not pay attention to the right diet. Over time, such a lifestyle begins to cause severe harm to the organs of the digestive system: disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as other diseases, may occur. If food does not enter the stomach in a timely manner, and hydrochloric acid begins to corrode its walls, this leads to heartburn and vomiting.
- Stress can also cause vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, weakness and fever in adults. Emotional overload, tension during the day, depression can provoke unpleasant symptoms. In this case, nausea, pain in the dorsal region, bloating, and heartburn often appear. Excessive experiences lead to the fact that spasms begin in the stomach. Frequent worries as a result can lead to serious he alth problems and even diseases, such as ulcers.
- Eating too much junk food. The foods that are sold in any store include a large amount of carbohydrates and s alt. Any kind of fast food can be attributed to such food - there is almost nothing in it.beneficial to the human body. Regular consumption of this kind of food leads to problems with the gastrointestinal tract: the appearance of diarrhea, bad breath, heartburn, dysbacteriosis. Eating large amounts of fast food has been shown to result in obesity, feeling sleepy even when fully rested, and dementia.
- Pain in the abdomen, nausea, diarrhea, weakness and dizziness as a result of taking medications. The course of taking medicines, especially with a strong effect, is important to carry out strictly, following the prescriptions of the attending physician. It is forbidden to independently change the dosage and use drugs longer than the prescribed period. When the first unpleasant symptoms appear, it is important to immediately go to the doctor. When taking strong drugs, the patient may experience side effects in the form of the onset of vomiting, an increase in the acidity index in the stomach, which will be difficult to reduce with simple medications. To get rid of the ailment, experts recommend stopping antibiotics. In some cases, along with high acidity, the patient has a fever.
Prevention measures
The main factor in the prevention of nausea, diarrhea, headaches and weakness is personal hygiene.
This includes:

Possible diseases
The most dangerous causes of the described symptoms include various diseases that need timely diagnosis and treatment. These include:
- Enterovirus infection. With a disease of the intestinal form, the patient has diarrhea, severe abdominal pain, increased gas formation, and nausea. Indicators of intoxication of the body are moderate. In newborns, the disease resolves with catarrhal manifestations in the nasopharynx.
- Difficulties in bowel function. Such violations can lead to premature satiety syndrome. In this case, the patient indicates the presence of nausea, diarrhea, headache and weakness. Rapid satiety syndrome appears as a result of a decrease in overall tone and the functioning of only one section of the stomach. The patient's intake of even small portions of food leads to pulling sensations in the lower abdomen and a quick feeling of fullness.
- The appearance of a hernia. The main symptom of a hernia in the esophagus is belching. Due to the ingestion of food and gastric juice on the mucosa of the esophagus, the eructation becomes bitter or sour. Patients sometimes experience heartburn, which appears mainly when playing sports, overeating, drinking alcohol. Anemia and pain in the presence of a hernia speak ofbleeding inside the esophagus. In this case, when analyzing the patient's feces, the doctor detects an admixture of blood.
Gastritis and ulcer
Vomiting, diarrhea and weakness of the body with gastritis can be accompanied by pain in the abdomen, sour belching, bitterness in the mouth. In this case, treatment of vomiting and diarrhea should be started immediately after getting rid of the root causes of the disease. In the presence of biliary reflux gastritis, the patient informs the doctor about severe abdominal pain, belching, intestinal disorders, complete or partial lack of appetite.
In some cases, severe bleeding occurs, in which the patient vomits blood. Fecal matter may contain blood and be tarry. An occult blood test is most often positive. The main symptom that indicates the presence of such gastritis is vomiting with bile. Due to impaired bowel movements, nausea and vomiting haunt the patient in the morning and evening.
When an ulcer is present, the patient experiences corresponding unpleasant symptoms. Before heartburn, the patient has a slight malaise after eating. Severe pulling pains begin in the abdomen. In addition, vomiting and belching may begin.
Pancreatitis and cholecystitis
Bile can be easily detected in vomit in pancreatitis. In addition to vomiting, the patient also has additional symptoms of the lesion: pain, fatigue and general weakness of the body. With exacerbation of pancreatitis, it is undesirable to eat food,so as not to provoke vomiting with bile. A properly formulated diet by a doctor is the main factor that will help to cope with the disease and improve the patient's condition.
With cholecystitis, a patient has characteristic bitterness in the mouth, a taste of metal, vomiting and belching. In addition, severe pains develop in the abdomen, the stool is disturbed, and increased gas formation appears. Often diarrhea and constipation alternate. With cholecystitis, liquid stools of a foamy nature often occur. A sick patient may be particularly aggressive, often complaining of difficulty sleeping.
If there is no temperature
Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, headache, weakness without fever - a rare condition in medical practice. If the patient vomits, he has pain in the head and coordination is disturbed - these may be signs of vertigo. Vertigo refers to the manifestation of various neurological diseases. At the same time, there is no increase in body temperature in adults and children.
Immediately after the appearance of the first unpleasant symptoms, it is important to consult a treating specialist. Trying to normalize the condition on your own at home in this case is prohibited. Such symptoms can be dangerous and indicate some serious illness. Improper treatment can lead to complications.
Help at home can only be provided when the cause of such a condition is precisely determined. But in any situation, taking medications of your choice is unacceptable, since the effect of themcan change the overall clinical picture and it will be difficult for the doctor to determine what is really happening with the patient.
Treatment measures
If the body is poisoned, the patient should immediately rinse the stomach with a weak solution of potassium permanganate and water. In the presence of vomiting, nausea, diarrhea and weakness without fever, it is recommended to take Smecta, Regidron, or any sorbent. If the patient suffers from vomiting, then for some time he is forbidden to eat. Experts recommend drinking some water or sucking on pieces of ice every fifteen minutes. After that, you need to follow proper nutrition without spicy and fatty foods, which can provoke inflammation of the mucosa.
The most important thing in treatment is to drink as much clean water as possible. For a quick recovery, the recommended norm is 2 liters of water, otherwise dehydration will occur. Water is important because nausea and vomiting strongly cleanse the stomach, removing fluid and causing thinning of the walls of the organ. To get rid of the pain syndrome, in this case, you need to take antispasmodics.
Medication
If the negative symptoms do not go away for a long time, then the patient begins a toxic lesion, which requires urgent medical attention. After a thorough diagnosis, the specialist will prescribe effective antimicrobial drugs. At the end of antibiotic therapy, a course of restoration of the intestinal microflora is carried out to get rid ofdysbacteriosis.
Start taking medications immediately after the normalization of the stool. The drugs will improve the functioning of digestion and restore the efficiency of the body as a whole.
In the presence of vomiting and diarrhea, when the temperature rises and pain in the head begins at the same time, you should definitely seek help from a doctor. Before the doctor arrives, in order to try to lower the temperature, you should take Aspirin, Paracetamol, Analgin, Citramon or Indomethacin. With diarrhea, the following remedies help well: Diclofenac and Levomycetin.
Recovery of the body
After getting rid of the main cause of the ailment, the attending physician advises patients to follow a diet for some time. In the first days of treatment, it is best to eat the following foods:
- boiled rice;
- oatmeal;
- rosehip broth;
- lean crackers;
- strong tea without sugar;
- dried fruit compote.
There are a number of foods that are strictly prohibited after recovery:

If diarrhea is combined with other unpleasant symptoms, then many foods should be avoided.
On the second day you should boil porridge or vegetables. You can start eating your usual food only on the third day. It is also recommended to take enzyme-containing products at this time.
A decoction of chamomile or oak bark will help restore a person's condition. Such funds eliminate inflammatory processes.
Diagnosis of the patient
If there is bile and blood in the feces or vomit, then it is important to consult a doctor - he will prescribe tests, and if necessary, send him to a highly specialized specialist. To accurately determine the source of pain and the cause of the deterioration, the specialist must palpate and prescribe an ultrasound examination of the abdominal cavity.
The proctologist will be able to determine the source of the hemorrhage after a series of examinations. For this, rectoscopy is used, which allows you to diagnose the condition of the abdominal region. With the help of such an examination, the doctor determines the presence of cracks, hemorrhoids and various formations in the organ. During a colonoscopy, an endoscopic examination is prescribed, which helps to determine all ongoing pathological processes and dangerous changes in the intestine.
