hi im a 13 year old (nearly 14) state swimmer and when i am swimming backstroke i am feeling nausea. it has been happening for about a year now and it is quite annoying me because it is affecting my swimming. my coaches think i will grow out of it, but i do know that it is not my breathing or something to od with my inner ear. it could be motion sickness, but i have tried taking ginger tablets and they didnt work. i am now actually feeling sick during the whole training sesson where before it would only happen when i race. i dont know what is happening and why it is happening, please help!!

    Try chewing some Tums before practice. When I had a problem with reflux, acid would back up in my throat and make me feel sick, especially on backstroke. what are tums?? is that meant to be like chewing gum? if it is i may try that Rachael
