Sea Sickness(Motion Sickness)

Back

Motion sickness is a sensation of wooziness. It usually occurs when you're traveling by car, boat, plane, or train. Your body's sensory organs send mixed messages to your brain, causing dizziness, lightheadedness, or nausea.

SYMPTOMS

Symptoms include fatigue, uneasiness, dizziness and vomiting.

CAUSES

You get motion sickness when one part of your balance-sensing system (your inner ear , eyes, and sensory nerves) senses that your body is moving, but the other parts don't. For example, if you are in the cabin of a moving ship, your inner ear may sense the motion of waves, but your eyes don't see any movement.
