5. Stomach Conditions

A wide variety of stomach conditions can result in nausea:

  • Gastroenteritis or stomach flu is one of the most common issues. Despite its name, it is unrelated to influenza. Viral, bacterial, or parasitic infections can be responsible for gastroenteritis.
  • Gastroparesis features issues with the nerves or muscles in the stomach, which slow the process of digestion and stomach emptying.
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid backs up into the esophagus. GERD has a number of symptoms, and nausea is common.
