What Casues Sudden Dizziness On Standing Up?

default
Posted on Tue, 8 Jul 2014
Question: From couple of months, I have been experiencing a strange symptom. Its like, if I sit down with folded legs for long time, around 30 mins, and if I get up suddenly, then for a second or two, I experience dizziness or giddiness(Chakkar ana, in hindi) and then its gone. The same happens some times if I am looking up on the ceiling and suddenly look down., or looking right side and then suddenly look on the left side or vice a versa.
This happens more frequently if I have less sleep.

it is normal condition

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
Your symptoms are not indicative of any disease but normal condition only.
Any human being will feel the same way if he or she does the manoeuvre you have told.
These symptoms may be more if one has got anemia. So just get a Complete Blood Counts to see if there is something wrong.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!
