What Causes Nausea And Dizziness After An Ankle Sprain?

I just twisted my ankle or sprained it, I m not sure. Immediately after I started feeling nauseous, very dizzy, and sweaty. Why do I feel this way? It comes in waves. I just want to know if it is serious and should go to a doctor. I m 20, female, 5 10 , 185 lbs. Thanks

Hello,

Nausea and dizziness that you are having can be due to dehydration or due to the shock of the sprain. This can be due to gastritis also that gets aggravated during anxiety.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
