🔷Why Do We Feel Sick While Traveling? Motion Sickness Explained



✍🏻Motion sickness is a common condition that happens while traveling in a car, bus, train, ship, or airplane.

It occurs when the brain receives conflicting signals from the eyes, inner ear, and body about movement.

Causes of Motion Sickness

1. Sensory Conflict Theory

Eyes may see still surroundings (like inside a car) while the inner ear senses movement.

This mismatch confuses the brain, leading to nausea.



2. Inner Ear (Vestibular System)

The inner ear controls balance.

Rapid or irregular movements disturb it, causing dizziness and vomiting.



3. Other Triggers

Reading while traveling.

Strong smell of fuel or food.

Anxiety and stress.

Poor ventilation.
