If you or someone in your family suffers from motion sickness then you have an extra chore to prepare for when you think about traveling for the holidays. Not everyone gets motion sickness the same and it may not happen all the time. For example some people get motion sickness on a cruise ship but not while they are in a car.
Others may get queasy when they are on a train but not on an airplane. Common symptoms of motion sickness include sweating, nausea, dizziness, saliva in the mouth that is more than usual, and vomiting. Most people know when it is approaching on and do all they can to minimize the effects. Many women many suffer from motion sickness when they are pregnant due to the changes taken place in their body. Children are also quite susceptible to it as well.
There are plenty of things you can do on your own to help prevent the effects of motion sickness from occurring. Many adults find they don’t suffer from motion sickness if they drive the car. This is because the sensors in their brain view the scenery flashing by differently when they are in the driver’s seat. This is why so many get sick when they travel by train. If you are susceptible to motion sickness as a passenger in a car avoid a window seat on a train. You also want to avoid those seats that face rearwards.
Children should avoid trying to play games or read books in a moving vehicle if they suffer from motion sickness. They should also ride in the middle seat in order to offer them a view out the front of the vehicle instead of from their peripheral vision on the side windows. Offer them light snacks before travel such as crackers and water. Avoid having them travel on an empty stomach or after eating a large meal.
For those that still suffer from motion sickness, an over the counter or a prescription medication may be mandatory for successful holiday travel to take place. Make sure you cautiously follow the instructions of such medications. Don’t outdo the recommended dose. If it says to take it with food or water then make sure you do so. Some of them require consumption during a particular period of time prior to your departure so pay attention to this important detail.
Even so, no method or medication is 100% foolproof when it comes to motion sickness . Some people experience it only once in a while and others deal with it all the time. Try to get to some refreshed air if possible. If you are on an airplane turn on the air above you and take slow, deep breaths. You will find bags offered in case you do end up having to vomit. You can also try to make your way to the bathroom where you will have more privacy.
While it may be embarrassing you need to understand you aren’t the only one that has problems with motion sickness. The fact that the mode of transport you are taking may be full during the holiday season can be stressful but you will never have to see most of them ever again. You may want to carry extra clothing with you for those in your part that do suffer from motion sickness, especially children who may end up vomiting on their clothing.
Don’t let your holiday travel plans be stopped due to your fear of suffering from motion sickness. Do all you can to subside the symptoms on your own. If that isn’t effective then try various over the counter products. As a last resort ask your doctor for a prescription medication to help ensure you can get through the travel process so you can enjoy your holidays. If you find certain types of transportation are more difficult for you than others you should avoid them if possible.
