Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be from a mild dehydration or a lack of vitamins or minerals. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and minimal caffeine. Add a multivitamin/multimineral supplement daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
