Nausea is a commonly encountered symptom in healthcare that is difficult for any patient. Causes may be as simple as the body’s defense against an ingested toxin to a complex association set of signals activated by motion, medications, anesthesia, position, stress, pregnancy, psychiatric disorder, or fear.
