Read MoreFeeling nauseous can disrupt your entire day. Whether it’s a sudden wave of queasiness, persistent discomfort, or a sign of something more serious, nausea deserves timely care and evaluation. At InMotion Health, we bring urgent care directly to you so you can get the relief you need without having to leave the house.
What Is Nausea?
Nausea is the uneasy sensation in your stomach that often precedes the urge to vomit. It’s not a condition itself, but rather a symptom of many potential issues, from mild, short-term triggers to more serious underlying illnesses. It may come on suddenly or build slowly over time and can vary in intensity. While nausea may resolve on its own, persistent or severe episodes should be assessed by a medical provider to rule out more concerning causes.
How Is Nausea Treated?
Treatment for nausea depends on its underlying cause, which is why a thorough evaluation is essential. At InMotion Health, patients can choose between virtual and at-home visits for care. During your consultation, we’ll assess your symptoms and review your medical history. We may recommend rapid in-home diagnostic testing for conditions that can cause nausea, such as influenza, COVID-19, or H. pylori. We can also perform rapid pregnancy tests and urinalysis in your home to help rule out pregnancy or a urinary tract infection as the cause.
Treatment may include antiemetic medications to help reduce nausea and vomiting, hydration support if symptoms are accompanied by vomiting or diarrhea, and dietary guidance to help you reintroduce food safely. In some cases, follow-up testing may be needed to investigate infections, digestive issues, or medication side effects.
Nausea Symptoms
Nausea may occur on its own or with additional symptoms such as:
- Loss of appetite
- Excessive salivation
- Sweating
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Vomiting or dry heaving
- Bloating or a sensation of fullness
If your symptoms are persistent, severe, or paired with fever, chest pain, or signs of dehydration, it’s important to seek care promptly.
What Causes Nausea?
Nausea has a wide range of potential triggers. Common causes include:
- Stomach viruses or foodborne illness
- Migraine headaches
- Motion sickness or inner ear disorders
- Pregnancy (morning sickness)
- Medication side effects
- Acid reflux or gastrointestinal issues
- Stress, anxiety, or emotional distress
- Serious conditions like appendicitis or pancreatitis
Accurate diagnosis is key to effective treatment, especially when nausea is part of a larger pattern of symptoms.
Why Is Nausea Treatment Important?
While occasional nausea may resolve on its own with rest and hydration, untreated or severe nausea can lead to dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, and missed diagnoses of more serious conditions. Timely care also reduces the need for unnecessary emergency room visits and supports a quicker return to normal activities. With InMotion Health’s flexible care model, you don’t have to sit in a crowded clinic or urgent care waiting room. Instead, compassionate, expert treatment comes directly to you.
How Should I Support My Recovery From Nausea?
After your evaluation, your provider will give you a personalized recovery plan tailored to your specific needs. In general, it’s important to stay well hydrated with water, electrolyte drinks, or clear broths. When ready to eat, bland foods like toast, rice, or bananas are usually easiest on the stomach. Avoid nausea triggers such as greasy foods, strong odors, or sudden movements. Resting in an upright position can also help ease digestion.
Who to Trust with Treatment
When nausea strikes, you need fast answers and real relief. InMotion Health offers same‑day in‑home visits complete with diagnostic testing and a tailored treatment plan, as well as virtual consultations. Contact us to ensure that you get the right care without ever leaving your home.
When in Doubt
If you or someone else is experiencing severe or life-threatening symptoms and you’re unsure whether it’s an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest Emergency Room. It’s always safer to seek immediate care rather than delay treatment.
