Hello,
You had fainted while cheering NFL game, luckily you didn't hurt yourself.
Dizziness and
fainting commonly occurs when your vitals are not normal, low blood pressure, low blood glucose level,
dehydration, standing up too fast, etc. Other serious medical conditions that may cause fainting attacks are stress, anemia, exhaustion, cardiac problems, stroke (
loss of consciousness due to reduced blood flow), seizures or issues with the nervous system.
You are suggested to take rest, avoid stress or
anxiety, just relax. Take home made nutritious food rich in iron, minerals and proteins. Take adequate fluids and water to help your blood electrolyte system get normal. Supplement yourself with sodium and potassium. Take orange juice, ORS, electrolyte, etc. Stay away from addictions if any. However, take clinically examined by a GP, get all routine tests and investigations done to detect the pathology that caused you symptoms. You will be treated accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
