Low haemoglobin, known as anaemia, along with indigestion and vomiting, should be properly evaluated, as the symptoms may be related (for example, poor nutrition, iron deficiency, or stomach irritation affecting food intake). Treatment usually involves identifying and correcting the cause, which may include iron supplements, vitamin B12 or folic acid if deficient, and medicines to control acidity or gastritis if present. It is important to eat a balanced diet rich in iron (like green leafy vegetables, dates, jaggery, pulses, and meat if you eat it), stay hydrated, and avoid very spicy or oily foods that can worsen indigestion. Since vomiting can reduce absorption of nutrients and medicines, you should consult a doctor for blood tests and proper treatment, and seek urgent care if vomiting is persistent, you feel very weak, dizzy, or notice blood in vomit or stools.
