What health concerns does throwing up food pose?

[kvorumese]

This is probably not the right forum, but offtopic also doesn't sit well with me in regards to this... Anyways, the title. I want to hear actual facts - what can regularly throwing up meals do to you? If you want to share your experience, you are more than welcome to.

Bump, because the thread has drowned and is now on page 3 :p

Electrolyte imbalances, esophageal tears, cavities, parotid gland swelling are consequences of frequent and/or forceful vomiting. And then there's also a myriad of health issues that arise from being malnourished.

All of the above problems. If it's in relation to an eating disorder, I imagine they also have a lot of psychological and physical health symptoms. I'm sorry if you are suffering from one.

It'll fuck up your teeth for sure, very visibily too. You can also throw up much more easily, even by eating regularly

Esophageal varicies & bleeding can occur from the repeated exposure of the throat to acids.
That killed my uncle

Depending on how much you eat, you can rupture your stomach. It has happened before, and there are recorded deaths. It will also ruin your teeth. You also need to regularly eat vitamins because it'll cause imbalances. It's generally not good for you, lol, but I doubt that will stop you if you're already purging.

Thank you for the information

I wonder why for some reason most of my messages & threads now have to go through an approval process. I don't think I'm setting off any keyword flags, and this didn't use to happen when I just joined lol
