In the meantime, there are some things you can do to ease your symptoms and speed up your recovery.

Start by drinking plenty of fluids. This will help to prevent dehydration, which can make symptoms worse.

Rest is also crucial for recovery. Try to get as much sleep as possible and avoid strenuous activity until you feel better.

Another way to prevent food poisoning is to avoid cross-contamination. This means keeping raw chicken away from other food items.

Finally, cook chicken thoroughly in the future to avoid food poisoning. Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
