@1snotdoc: Motion sickness isn't weakness — it's a brain conflict 🧠 Your inner ear says you're moving. Your eyes say you're not. That mismatch = nausea, dizziness, and misery. 3 things that actually help: 👁️ Fix your eyes on the horizon (front seat, over-wing, midship) 🫚 1g ginger before travel 💊 Meclizine or Dramamine 1 hour before — or a scopolamine patch for long trips ⚠️ Spinning vertigo WITHOUT motion? That's not motion sickness. See an ENT. #motionsickness #ENT #innerear #traveltips #snotdoc
