Is abdominal distension with vomiting food poisoning?
Ask
Hello doctor,
At 8 am on July 25, I finished drinking coffee at 10 o'clock, I ate a jackfruit. By 12 o'clock, after eating, there were symptoms of bloating, abdominal distension and severe abdominal pain in each episode. At 14 o'clock, he vomited all the food out, but still had abdominal pain and vomiting, with 1 loose bowel movement. Up to today, July 27, I still feel pain in my stomach but it is lighter than at first. The doctor asked me if the abdominal distension with vomiting is food poisoning? I thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question “Is abdominal distension with vomiting food poisoning? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You have abdominal distension with vomiting, loose stools once, maybe because you eat a lot of jackfruit. If you now have a lot of abdominal pain relief and no longer have loose stools, there is no need for an endoscopy, ultrasound or anything else. Because of these cases, the body will adjust itself. However, if you still have a lot of abdominal pain or have a lot of diarrhea, you should go to a medical facility to check and see a doctor for further treatment.
If you still have questions about food poisoning, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
