What Causes Knee Pain And Dizziness?
Hi, My husband hurt his knee getting into the car at church. He sat there for a few minutes, complaining of his knee pain and being light headed. He lost consciousness for approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute. He had not eaten breakfast. His face became pale. Once he came to and was disoriented for a few minutes. I got him to eat a few bites and drink some sprite. After that he complained of being nauseous and barely ate any dinner. Sleeping now.

Hi,
Dizziness and lightheadness can happen following an episode of severe pain, it’s a kind of syncope and it will resolve by itself. He can take analgesics if pain persists, apply ice packs for symptomatic relief. If pain persists for long, he can consult an orthopedic and get evaluated. Wishing you good health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
