Can One Have Low Blood Pressure Leading To Dizziness, Lightheadedness And Nausea After A Stitch Removal?

When I have a minor procedure like having a stitch removed and it takes a long time, or if I pop a pimple and it takes me a few minutes, I get a light-headed, slightly dizzy slightly nauseous feeling. Maybe low blood pressure. My vision goes a little dark and I feel like I might faint. Why does this happen and what is the term for it?

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hi,
I read your query and would like to say that the right term is most probably pre-syncope. And this is most probably due to vaso-vagal origins (which is of benign nature).
I suggest a full cardiologic, neurologic and ENT to rule out any other causes of presyncope.
Hope I answered to your query.
