10 Side Effects of Radiation

Radiation Side Effect #6: Nausea
Sometimes, nausea can be caused by eating food that was not fresh or maybe detecting an unpleasant odor. At other times, it can be due to an illness and is often a way for your body to make you vomit. This can help remove toxins or pathogens that are posing a threat to your well-being.
Nausea is also a fairly common side effect of radiation. It can occur regardless of which part of the body is treated but is most likely to happen if the abdomen area is being treated. The nausea should disappear a few weeks after the treatment has finished.
