QUICK ANSWER

Vomiting meaning in Urdu is ulti or qay — forcefully bringing up the stomach's contents, often after a feeling of nausea (metli). It is a symptom, not a disease, with many possible causes. Most short episodes settle with rest and small sips of fluid, but certain warning signs in the vomit or the person need urgent care.

When to seek emergency care: Call 1122 or go to the nearest emergency department if vomit contains blood or 'coffee-ground' material, if vomiting follows a head injury, or if it comes with a severe headache and stiff neck, confusion, severe abdominal pain, or signs of dehydration such as no urine and extreme weakness. These need urgent assessment.

Vomiting meaning in Urdu: ulti aur qay

Vomiting meaning in Urdu is ulti, also called qay — the forceful bringing up of food or fluid from the stomach through the mouth. It usually follows a wave of nausea (metli), the queasy feeling that you are about to be sick.

Vomiting is a symptom with many causes, from a simple stomach upset to more serious problems, so the right response depends on why it is happening and how the person is overall.

Metli se ulti tak: yeh kyun hoti hai

Common causes include:

  • Stomach and gut infections (gastroenteritis) and food poisoning
  • Motion sickness and pregnancy, especially in the early months
  • Migraine, severe pain or strong smells
  • Some medicines and, in some people, too much alcohol
  • Less commonly, problems needing prompt attention, such as a blockage or a head injury

The company that vomiting keeps — fever, diarrhoea, headache, abdominal pain — offers useful clues but does not confirm a cause on its own.

Ulti ka ilaj: hydration aur aaram

The priority in ulti ka ilaj is preventing dehydration:

  • Rest the stomach briefly, then start small, frequent sips of water or ORS
  • Increase fluids slowly rather than drinking a large amount at once
  • When sips stay down, try small amounts of plain food
  • Avoid oily, heavy or strongly scented meals for a while
  • Rest, and get fresh air if smells trigger the feeling

Ask a pharmacist or doctor before using anti-sickness medicine, especially in pregnancy or for a child. Do not force food while nausea is strong.

Vomit me warning signs

What the vomit looks like matters. Seek medical care if you see:

  • Blood, whether bright red or dark like coffee grounds
  • Green or yellow-green vomit with severe abdominal pain
  • Vomiting that will not stop, so no fluids stay down

Repeated forceful vomiting can also cause dehydration, which needs attention in its own right.

When vomiting needs urgent care

Vomiting deserves prompt review if it comes with a severe headache and stiff neck, confusion or drowsiness, a recent head injury, severe or constant abdominal pain, high fever, or clear signs of dehydration. Babies, older adults and pregnant women who cannot keep fluids down should be seen sooner.

Children, older adults and pregnant women lose fluid quickly and need closer attention when vomiting.

For a child, offer small sips of ORS or clean water every few minutes rather than a large glass at once, and keep breastfeeding a baby. Watch for a dry mouth, no wet nappies or little urine, sunken eyes, unusual sleepiness or no tears when crying, and seek care early if these appear.

Do not give adult anti-sickness or anti-diarrhoea medicines to children unless a doctor advises it.

Older adults may become dehydrated or confused faster, especially if they take medicines for blood pressure, the heart or diabetes, so a review is sensible sooner. In pregnancy, some vomiting is normal early on, but being unable to keep any fluids down, weight loss or feeling faint needs prompt medical assessment rather than waiting.

Which doctor should you see?

A family physician is the usual first contact and can find the cause of most vomiting, check hydration, and advise on treatment. A gastroenterologist may be needed when vomiting is recurring, unexplained, or linked to ongoing digestive symptoms such as reflux, ulcer-like pain or difficulty swallowing.

Frequently asked questions

Ulti ke baad kya khana chahiye?

Wait until small sips of water or ORS stay down, then try plain, light foods in small amounts. Avoid oily, heavy and strongly scented meals until the stomach settles.

Kya qay rokne ki dawai khud le sakte hain?

It is best to ask a pharmacist or doctor first, particularly in pregnancy or for children. Anti-sickness medicine is not suitable for every cause and can mask a problem that needs assessment.

When is vomiting an emergency?

Blood in vomit, vomiting after a head injury, a severe headache with a stiff neck, or an inability to keep any fluids down are urgent. Seek immediate care in these situations.
