Nausea is an upset stomach that often leads to vomiting. There are many causes of nausea, including anxiety, stress, seasickness, and morning sickness (in pregnant women). Nausea can also be a symptom of more serious illnesses like food poisoning or stomach flu, so if the nausea doesn't go away after 48 hours, see your doctor. If the nausea is caused by a less serious illness, or is generally caused by anxiety or stress, there are steps you can take to help you heal the nausea quickly.

Steps

Part 1 of 6: Quick Responses

1. 

   Sit in a quiet place. Movement can stimulate or make nausea worse. Try relaxing in a quiet space, or on the bed or carpet in your room. If you still feel nauseous, gently soothe yourself by lying down, head raised, preferably with a pillow (this will make you sleep more easily and will be much more comfortable).
   • If you can relax, taking a nap will help relieve your nausea and feel better when you wake up.

2. 

   
   
   Deep breath. Breathing fresh air can clean your lungs, reduce nervousness, and help your stomach feel better.
   • Sit in a quiet place with your eyes closed, trying to think of something other than nausea (to bring your mind away from that feeling).
   • Turn off all electronic devices. Using too many electronic devices can cause headaches, and you probably don't want to be nauseous and headache at the same time.
   • Take a deep breath in through your nose and hold your breath. Then slowly exhale through your mouth. Repeatedly.

3. 

   
   
   Place a cool compress on the back of the neck. Nausea can be caused by a fever, but even if it is not, the body temperature may increase due to moderate or severe nausea, and a cool temperature can help stabilize the body temperature.
   • Take a clean towel and dip it in cold water. If you lie on your back, place the gauze pad under the back of your neck. If you are sitting, put the gauze pad around the back of your neck.

4. 

   
   
   Trick your mind out of nausea. Watching movies, calling a friend, or doing any kind of light activity can stop you from thinking about nausea.
   • Sometimes nervousness stimulates nausea or aggravates nausea. Getting your worries out of your mind can help make the nausea go away.
   • Avoid activities that require high concentration. For example, reading or writing that requires your eyes to focus for a long time can cause eye strain. Eye strain may not affect you under normal circumstances, but while you're nauseous, any stress or stress will worsen the symptoms.
   • Stop strenuous physical activity. Gentle movements can help relieve nausea. Conversely, physical activity increases pressure on the stomach and may increase feelings of nausea

5. 

   Avoid strong odors. Smell is linked to the digestive system, so a strong scent can upset the stomach and increase nausea (avoid paint at all costs).
   • Don't cook, smoke, or apply perfume. If possible, avoid areas where people are cooking, smoking, or applying excessively perfumes.

1. 

   Use your fingers to do acupressure. Reflexology is an ancient Chinese method in which people use their fingers to press on an area of ​​the body. Like acupuncture, acupressure works by altering the pain warning signals that nerves transmit to the brain.
   • Using your index finger and middle finger to create a C shape, press firmly on the groove between two large tendons on the inside of your wrists just below the palm of your hand.
   • Press like that for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Then lift your hand, and you may feel the nausea gone or gone.
2. Use a reflexology ring. If you want your hands to be free, you can still try acupressure by purchasing a reflexology ring or a motion sickness bracelet. These rings have buttons that press continuously on the wrists, giving you a feeling of relief all day.

3. 

   Do yoga to stretch your back and neck. Sometimes nausea is caused by discomfort in the back and neck. Gentle stretches can relieve pain in the neck and nape and also help relieve nausea.
   • To stretch your upper back, do a crouch in a cross-legged sitting position. Sit cross-legged on the floor and bend forward. Stop when your upper body is at a 45-degree angle to the leg. Put your arms on the chair in front of you. If you are more flexible, you can bend over until your forehead touches the floor in front of you while your arms are stretched out to the sides.
   • To stretch your neck, sit in a chair. Relax your shoulders and place your hands on your thighs. Tilt your head over one shoulder and hold it for 15-30 seconds. Keep the other shoulder low. Take a deep breath and bring your head to the center. Repeat this 2 - 4 times on each side.
   • Another good anti-nausea yoga pose is with your legs raised against the wall. Lie on a yoga mat or floor mat close to the wall. Lean your scapula and butt against the wall and raise your foot to the wall. Hold this position for at least 5 minutes or for 40-50 breaths. This pose will ease nausea and relieve stress or pressure in the body.

   • It's important to eat and drink, even if you're feeling nauseous. In fact, an empty stomach and lack of water can cause nausea or increase nausea.

2. 

   Eat bland and water-filled foods. Even if you don't want to eat at all, leaving your stomach empty will increase your nausea. To avoid further stomach upset, try eating foods that are easy to digest.
   • Bland foods in this case could be cookies, toast, potatoes, pasta, rice and English muffins. For mild nausea, you can also try boiled or grilled fish or chicken.
   • Wet foods include ice cream, gravy soup and fruit jelly.
   • Avoid greasy, salty, or spicy foods. Sausages, fast foods, fried foods, and chips are nauseating enemies, for example. These foods are too heavy for a sensitive stomach at the moment.

   • Water is the best option, but juices like apple juice work as well. Non-carbonated soda water, especially a gas-free ginger beer, can also help stabilize an upset stomach.
   • If you do vomit, drink a sports drink containing glucose, salt and potassium to replace minerals that may have been lost.
   • Avoid beverages with caffeine and alcohol.
5. Do not lie down immediately after eating. This can slow digestion and lead to stomach pain, the number one cause of nausea. You should wait at least half an hour to an hour after eating and then lie down to give your stomach time to digest. advertisement

1. 

   Eat ginger. Ginger tea, fresh ginger, and ginger candy can help relieve nausea. Ginger root helps stimulate digestive fluids and secreted enzymes to neutralize stomach acids. The phenols in ginger also help relax the muscles in the stomach, so it also reduces the activities in the stomach, while helping the intestine to expel toxins from the body faster.
   • Make ginger tea with a ginger root about 5 cm long. Wash and peel the ginger root. Cut into small slices or crush by wrapping with wax paper and crushing with a spoon.
   • Heat about 2-3 cups of water to heat. Add ginger and boil for 3-5 minutes.

   • The scent of peppermint is also very effective in relieving nausea. Place a few drops of food grade peppermint oil directly on the inside of your wrists or into a gum.
3. Make milk sandwiches. Bland foods can help soothe your stomach, including milk and bread. Bread absorbs excess acid while milk forms the lining of the stomach and helps to stabilize the stomach. However, you should not drink milk directly, because the stomach will be uncomfortable if only milk is not. So make a toast and milk for a nice, peaceful neutrality.
   • If you have stomach flu (or gastritis) then don't use this treatment, as stomach flu reacts badly to milk.
   • Heat a cup of milk, but do not boil. Fill the bowl with milk.
   • Bake a slice of bread and spread some unsalted butter on it.
   • Break the toast into the milk and stir. Slowly for your eat.

   • Cut the lemon in half and hold a distance just enough to smell the scent without feeling too harsh.
   • If the aroma of the lemon is not working, cut it into pieces and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes. When the lemon is cold or frozen, suck the slice of lemon to relieve nausea quickly.
