What is motion sickness?

   

By Dr Ananya Mandal, MD

Motion sickness, also termed kinetosis, is a generalized term that is used to describe an unpleasant set of symptoms like nausea, vomiting and dizziness that occurs when a person is travelling.

As the travel course progresses the symptoms may improve while the body adapts to the conditions leading to the sickness.

Motion sickness may occur while travelling on the road, by air and commonly occurs while travelling on water (sea sickness). Some individuals fail to experience a lessening of their symptoms until they stop travelling. 1-5
