Hey! I was recently on a trip to a hill station and I had to kind of travel in a van through the roads of the hilly region all the time. I generally don’t feel sick when I travel and this was the first time I sensed a weird feeling in my gut. My head was spinning and was nauseous for a long time. I wanted to puke and put my head between my knees for a while. I guess I was sensing motion sickness. What are the symptoms of motion sickness and how can I overcome it. It was really uncomfortable and it was a vacation to enjoy. Can someone help me?

Motion sickness can strike quickly and make you break out in a cold sweat and feel like you need to throw up. Other common symptoms include:
Dizziness
Increase in saliva production
Loss of appetite
Pale skin
In addition, some people get headaches, feel very tired, or have shallow breathing.
Next Steps
For most people, symptoms usually donât last long. They often go away once you get used to the situation, whether itâs the rocking of a boat or the movement of a train. But there are some simple things you can do if the motion sickness isnât going away on its own: Relax. Find something to focus on, whether itâs taking deep breaths or counting backwards from 100. Closing your eyes can help, too. Look at a stable object. If youâre on a boat, look at the horizon. If youâre in a car, look through the windshield. Avoid alcohol. Eat lightly before travel but donât fast. Breathe fresh air -- and donât smoke. Avoid reading. If you can, get a seat over the wing if youâre flying, an upper-deck cabin if youâre sailing, or a front-seat spot if youâre in a car. Natural Remedies Some people feel like they get relief with these: Raw ginger. Thereâs some scientific proof that this root, long used as a folk remedy to fight nausea, is effective. But it may act as a blood thinner. Talk to your doctor first before you use it. Mint. Eating peppermint is thought to calm the body. At the very least, the aroma may soothe you.
