The symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea in colds are commonly associated with gastrointestinal colds, a specific type of upper respiratory tract infection. Many patients may have gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea at the beginning of the illness. While the symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection such as cough, sputum, nasal congestion and runny nose are relatively mild or even absent, patients mistakenly think they are suffering from acute gastroenteritis. In fact, it is due to the decrease of the body’s immunity and the invasion of pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria, which cause inflammatory changes such as obvious congestion and edema of the mucous membrane of the upper respiratory tract and exudation of inflammatory substances. Through the adjacent lymph nodes, these inflammations can involve the digestive system and cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Clinical treatment is based on symptomatic treatment of the symptoms of the digestive system along with aggressive anti-cold treatment.
