General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I think you should check your blood pressure and record the results for reference. It might be sudden drop in blood pressure, but should check it out. With regard to numbness and tingling it might be due to nerve compression from bending it. As the bending was not severe, the nerve recovered on its own. This lightheadedness should be further checked.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
