I was bit by a baby bear and a few days later I had diarrhea and vomitting, and I heard that there may be some sort of intestinal bacteria caused by the bite?

Well, in theory, any animal can give you rabies, and a bear's mouth isn't exactly a sanitary place, so you could get a number of bacterial infections.
Diahrrhea and vomitting isn't what I would expect from a bear bite, but I'm no doctor. Any time a wild animal bites you, you should talk to a doctor.

They could carry diease just like any other creature. BTW, why in the world were you messing with a bear cub, anyway? Are you mentally deficient or something?

Sure. You need to go to the doctor NOW. Hope the bear didn't have rabies.

Definately. Any animal bite should be seen by a doctor, and I mean pronto.

Bears don't brush their teeth, floss or use mouth wash. Go see a doctor
