Nausea and vomiting
Abstract
Nausea can be described as the overall unpleasant sensation of needing to vomit. It is often accompanied by pallor, chills and sweating. Should nausea progress to vomiting, the ejection of gastric contents through the mouth occurs, often requiring a forceful event. Vomiting is sometimes valuable, as it rids the body of toxic matter.
