When to seek care for Stomach Bug

- Watery or persistent diarrhea

What Causes a Stomach Bug?
Stomach bugs — also known as gastroenteritis — are commonly caused by:
- Viral infections (e.g., norovirus or rotavirus)
- Contaminated food or water
- Close contact with infected individuals
- Bacterial infections (E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella)
- Parasitic infections
- Occasionally: medication reactions or food intolerances
We don’t guess — we test. Our provider will determine whether your symptoms are from a common viral stomach bug, foodborne bacteria, or intestinal parasites, and recommend the right treatment.
Can I Treat a Stomach Bug at Home?
For mild cases, try:
- Drinking fluids with electrolytes like Pedialyte
- Eating bland foods (BRAT diet: bananas, rice, applesauce, toast)
- Taking OTC nausea or diarrhea medication if advised
But if symptoms worsen or last over 24 hours, don’t wait.
