About viral gastroenteritis
Viral gastroenteritis (often called a stomach bug) causes diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and cramping. It’s usually caused by a virus like norovirus or rotavirus and spreads easily from person to person. Most people recover at home within a few days, but treatment can help manage the symptoms.
