Feeling Dizzy And Lightheaded When Getting Up From Bending. Any Cure?
when I get up from bending or pick up something heavey, I get really dizzy and light headed sometime start to loose my balance ans even get disoriented.
Thanks for your query.
The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be due to:
1. Any pathology in the vestibular apparatus in inner ear (it is associated with maintenance of body posture & balance) & Cerebro-pontine angle
2. Any fluctuation in blood pressure levels such as Hypotension
3. Decrease in blood sugar levels (Hypoglycemia)
4. Deficiency of certain nutrients like Iron, Vitamin B 12, Calcium, etc. which also interferes with blood formation & nerve conduction.
5. Long term use of certain medications.
Investigations like complete blood count, estimation of blood pressure and blood sugar levels will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis.
A CT scan of brain might be required to rule out any pathology in the inner ear & Cerebro-pontine angle.
So, it will be better to consult an ENT specialist & get a proper physical examination done.
Therefore, that appropriate management steps could be taken.
Meanwhile, maintain adequate hydration, take a healthy balanced diet & avoid stress.
Also, make sure that you do not get up or bend down suddenly.
Take some time, it prevents peripheral accumulation of blood & reduces the symptoms of dizziness & light-headedness.
Wishing you a good health.
Let me know if I need to clarify further.
Thanks & take care.
