At least once in a lifetime, any person’s head was spinning. If this is a one-time occurrence, they rarely pay attention to it. He sat down, waited for it to pass, and forgot, at least until he again grabbed it. At the same time, it is worth remembering that if you feel dizzy, weakness breaks the body, and there are other unpleasant sensations, then all together can be a sign of some kind, including a serious illness.
"Not scary" dizziness
Let us first consider the relatively safe causes of this phenomenon. It often happens that if you stand up sharply, roll over, throw your head or bend over, you feel dizzy. Weakness is absent or present, but very mild. This phenomenon is called positional dizziness, it is quite normal and can only indicate a slightly reduced pressure or fatigue.
The second "not scary", and even a pleasant reason is pregnancy. It also happens to her that she is dizzy; weakness sometimes appears, sometimes not, but this is all explained by physiology.
Do not be afraid of dizziness from taking medications: some of them have such an effect. True, with medical dizziness it is worth rereading the instructions. If such a “side effect” is indicated there, you will have to endure; if not, it means that your body does not respond correctly to the drug, and you should talk about it with your doctor.
Many are dizzy (weakness also happens) when traveling in a car or bus, riding on a swing and carousel. Most often this speaks of an underdeveloped vestibular apparatus, and people know this peculiarity.
Dizziness with weakness can be with diet abuse. Do not want to faint and bring yourself to hospitalization - review your diet.
Frightening signs
If the head is spinning for a long time, the weakness is strong, the pressure is high, it is also accompanied by all this twitching of the limbs, or even fainting - urgently call an ambulance. It can be a stroke, and you can not lose time.
If your head hurts and is spinning, weakness, noise in the ear, a person is tearing, flowing from the ears, hearing is falling, your doctor is an ENT specialist. And you need to visit it faster if you do not want to learn a hearing aid.
In case of increased dizziness in movement, if the neck also hurts, the gait is disturbed and the person is somewhat disoriented, there is a suspicion that something happened to his neck in the region of the spine. Maybe this is an exacerbation of osteochondrosis, but there may be something more serious, so you should contact a trauma surgeon.
And the worst reason why dizzy and weakness overcomes the body is a brain tumor. At the same time, intensifying pains are observed along with progressive deafness.
What to do with dizziness
Clear business, first of all, it is necessary to find out what caused them. If chronic diseases, then treat them. To avoid hypoglycemic dizziness, you need to eat well ("vitamin" and varied). It’s good to saturate the body with iron. If dizziness predicts a migraine attack, lie down, drink strong coffee or tea. Evening walks instead of the TV on the couch - a good prevention of dizziness. It will also be useful to control the pressure, both for hypertensive patients and hypotensives: you see that the pressure "creeps out" from the norm - take the necessary measures. And always remember: consulting a doctor with alarming symptoms will not be superfluous!
