Plane rides & Puppies

This is my first puppy Ive had flown in. The night after he got home he bloated out huge. Looked like he gained 5lbs. Went to the vet... no bloat couldnt find anything wrong. He thought it could be worms.
That didnt makes sense for worms to come on that strong over night.
The next day threw up most of his food he had ate the previous night a few hours after the vet. (To be noted the vet still gave him shots and a dewormer even though I brought him in for the extended abdo.)
I didnt feed him anymore last night after the vomit
He was tender to the touch... possibly from the shots and such and didnt want to be picked up.

This A.M. he was no longer tender to the touch, and is no longer bloated. Though I gave him some white rice and chicken he threw it up an hour later.


Was should I expect from a puppy who was on a 12 hour flight then in his crate another 4-5 hours b4 I got him... I dont want to go back to the vet and have them take xrays... and all kinds of labs bc they have no idea whats going on.
