Dr. Medhat Abu-Shaaban, Pediatrician in Dubai, and medical director at myPediaclinic (Voted best pediatric clinic in Dubai) gives you some tips to avoid car sickness!
Many children experience dizziness or nausea while riding a car. This is known as Car Sickness.
To avoid this, there are some tips we can give to the parents.
- Before riding the car, the child should eat a light meal like salty biscuits, and not to eat a big meal.
- The car should be air conditioned and the children should not wear heavy clothes to avoid getting hot.
- The children should not read books or use iPads in the car, but rather look outside the window and see the external motion.
- Music also can be played to distract them.
