It can then lead to <a href='https://medlineplus.gov/dizzinessandvertigo.html'>dizziness</a> and <a href='https://medlineplus.gov/nauseaandvomiting.html'>nausea and vomiting</a>.</p> <p>Your brain senses movement by getting signals from your inner ears, eyes, muscles, and joints. When it gets signals that do not match, you can get motion sickness. For example, if you are reading on your phone while riding a bus, your eyes are focused on something that is not moving, but your inner ear senses motion.</p> <p>Where you sit can make a difference. The front seat of a car, forward cars of a train, upper deck on a boat or wing seats in a plane may give you a smoother ride.
