Have you ever gone on vacation only to come back feeling worse than when you left? You get that icky feeling in the back of your throat or you have an undeniable headache. Perhaps you have a stomach ache or even a combination of all of the above. Why do you feel so bad after coming home?
The usual suspects – You could have eaten or drank something that didn’t agree with you. You know the old jokes about not drinking the water in foreign countries and being careful about what you eat? Those jokes came out of real cases of food and drink poisoning.
The environmental change – You likely were in a place with a completely different environment than you are used to. Maybe it’s your allergies acting up or just your body having to fight harder at all the germs you encountered from the new people you were surrounded by. In your daily life you typically hang around the same people, but when traveling you are introduced to a flurry of change.
You could have caught something in transit – The air in the vents on the airplane, the poor ventilation in the subway, the mildew tainted rooms you didn’t know about on that cruise ship- anything is possible.
Your body is not used to a break – For some people getting sick while traveling happens because it’s the first time their body has taken a break in months, or even years. Your body has been so used to a constant adrenaline stream that getting sick would have eventually happened anyway, but taking the break made your body realize how bad it needed a break in the first place. (Note- this is all the more reason you should use ALL of your vacation days)
We’re not doctors, but these reasons for your possible icky feelings make perfect sense to us. Regardless of what caused it, we hope you feel better soon!
