It can take some adults a week to 10 days to feel better. Children usually rebound more quickly. But they also can take a turn for the worse more quickly especially if food and fluid intake has been inadequate. If you have not been able to keep food or fluids down for more than a few days and/or the diarrhea has been continuous, and/or you may be dehydrated, contact your doctor right away for advice.
