Vomiting is another symptom that can occur when adenovirus infects the gastrointestinal system. This symptom can be distressing and may be accompanied by nausea, stomach cramps, and loss of appetite.
To help manage vomiting caused by adenovirus infection, stay hydrated by sipping on small amounts of clear liquids such as water, broth, or electrolyte replacement drinks. Avoid eating large meals or consuming foods that may irritate the stomach. Over-the-counter anti-nausea medications can also provide relief in some cases.
Seek medical attention if vomiting is severe, lasts for more than a couple of days, or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms, such as high fever, severe abdominal pain, or signs of dehydration. (7)
