Welcome to Motion Sickness! Kinetosis

Kinetosis or most commonly known as Motion Sickness, is a very common disturbance of the inner ear that occurs when the body is subjected to movements in different directions. Dizziness, fatigue, and nausea are the most common symptoms of motion sickness which may even lead to vomiting. Most cases of motion sickness are mild. One common suggestion for treatment of motion sickness is to simply look out of the window of the vehicle the person is riding into and gaze towards the horizon in the direction of travel. While at night or aboard an enclosed vehicle, it is advisable to take a nap or to simply close one’s eyes. This will resolve conflict between the eyes and the inner ear and will be beneficial to somebody experiencing motion sickness. There are also available medications and over-the-counter prescriptions for motion sickness which are normally taken 30 to 60 minutes before traveling. Most importantly, prevention is best accomplished by looking for areas with lesser movement.
