What Causes Dizziness And Disoriented After Smoking Hookah?
Hi i smoked hookah last thursday night.. Since that following friday morning ive been feeling very dizzy and disoriented.. Its been 6 days now and that feeling had been constant throughout the whole day.. It feels as if ive been drunk since friday morning without drinking.. What could it possibly be and is it common?
Detailed answer - As per your query you have symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning which means when ever you smoke hookah your coals are not well ventilated and you don't inhale them too hard that is why carbon monoxide from coke comes along and combines with oxygen of your body and cause carbon monoxide poisoning which causes symptoms of dizziness, disorientation because that acts like a poison.
I would suggest you to make sure your coals are well ventilated and you must come in air twice thrice while having hookah. Stretch you legs for a while. Yes it is very common. Don't worry about symptoms it will resolve in few days and make sure you avoid nicotine buzz whenever you will have hookah.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
