Yes, it can. Nausea and vomiting is common after anesthesia, but it depends on your health and on the anesthesia provider. Some have fewer patients than others. If the anesthesia provider fills your stomach with air, you will be nauseous after surgery. So, choose an anesthesia provider well trained and do not listen to someone who tells you a 2-year training is the same as 6 years of training.
Usually not.
Some people could experience stomach discomfort.
