Prevent Motion Sickness

It is a discomfort that occurs when people are in motion in a car, at sea or on a boat, in an airplane and in an amusement park. Motion sickness occurs because the brain does not assimilate the information sent to it by the eyes, ears and body: due to the confused reaction of the brain, it causes people to feel dizzy. It frequently occurs in women and children but can affect anyone.

Causes of motion sickness

Motion sickness occurs when your brain receives conflicting signals from your inner ears, eyes, and body's proprioceptive receptors during motion. This sensory mismatch, often encountered in vehicles or moving environments, leads to symptoms like nausea, dizziness, and vomiting. Certain factors, including individual sensitivity, motion patterns, and lack of fresh air, can exacerbate the condition. To alleviate motion sickness, focus on stable reference points, sit in less motion-prone areas, and consider medications if necessary.

Preventing motion sickness

Common symptoms of motion sickness are:

  • Drink water or soothing mint-based herbal teas.
  • Avoid large, greasy meals.
  • Go to places with good air ventilation.
  • Focus your gaze straight ahead without being distracted by objects or mobile devices.
  • If possible, lie down and close your eyes.

Signs and Symptoms of motion sickness

There are physical and emotional signs and symptoms. It is important not to confuse shyness or awkwardness as social anxiety since some people are more extroverted than others.

  • Dizziness
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Paleness
  • Heavy breathing
  • Cold sweating

Common questions about Motion Sickness

Motion sickness occurs when there is a disconnect between what your eyes see and what your inner ear senses. This mismatch confuses the brain, leading to nausea, dizziness, sweating, and vomiting. It commonly happens during car rides, boat trips, flights, and amusement park rides.

Yes, motion sickness can be assessed and treated through an online consultation. A healthcare provider can recommend over-the-counter or prescription medications to help prevent and manage symptoms, as well as provide lifestyle tips to reduce discomfort.

Motion sickness symptoms usually subside once the movement stops. However, in some cases, mild dizziness or nausea may persist for a few hours after travel. If symptoms continue for an extended period, consult a healthcare provider.

For some people, motion sickness can significantly impact their ability to travel or enjoy activities like driving, flying, or even using virtual reality devices. If motion sickness is frequent or severe, treatment options can help improve quality of life.

If standard treatments like antihistamines, acupressure bands, or adjusting seating positions don’t help, a healthcare provider may recommend prescription medications or alternative therapies like vestibular rehabilitation exercises.

While motion sickness cannot always be completely prevented, steps like focusing on a fixed point, sitting in the front seat of a car, avoiding heavy meals before travel, and using motion sickness medications can help minimize symptoms.
