Nobody loves being sick, but the stomach flu has awful symptoms. It can soon render you useless and miserable (i.e., sleeping on the bathroom floor near the sink or toilet).
1. Drink lots of fluids
Fluids are essential because sweating, vomiting, and diarrhoea deplete fluids. If you have problems drinking, take little sips at regular intervals or chew ice chips.
2. Try eating the BRAT diet
Stomach flu makes eating tough. If the notion of eating makes you grimace, don't eat. When you finally feel you can write, start slow and basic.
3. Get Plenty of Rest
Get enough sleep and cut back on daily activities. It signifies lounging on the couch when not in bed. Your body fights infection and repairs cells while you rest.
4. Medicate with Caution
Medication and antibiotics won't cure the stomach flu, which is a virus.If it doesn't affect your stomach, ibuprofen (Advil) can assist with fever or discomfort. Getting dehydrated might also damage your kidneys.
5. Reduce Nausea with Acupressure
Some nausea can be treated by acupressure. Measure three fingers down from your palm's bottom to determine pressure point P-6, according to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Centre.
