Does Motion Sickness Cause Diarrhea And Vomiting?
My son threw up in the car Friday and we assumed it was motion sickness. About two hours later he chowed three pieces of pizza, ice cream and was still asking for snacks. Then yesterday after lunch he started having some diarrhea, again while we were in the car. He s had a little more diarrhea this morning, but is eating well. Could this all be stemming from car sickness? Could it be a virus? Or possibly unrelated?

Hi,
Having vomiting while car driving he might be having motion sickness.
But having loose motions and that too after taking full junk food might be due to indigestion or some infection due to contaminated food.
Give plenty of water and ORS liquid.
give light food for 2-3 days.
Ok and take care.
