Minimal nausea can be triggered by numerous factors:
1. Medications: Some drugs, particularly chemotherapy agents and painkillers, can cause nausea as a side effect. 2. Gastrointestinal Issues: Conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastritis, and peptic ulcers can lead to nausea. 3. Infections: Viral or bacterial infections, like the stomach flu, can cause nausea. 4. Emotional Stress: Anxiety and stress can also contribute to nausea.
