What Causes Dizziness And Nausea After A Toe Injury?

default
Posted on Wed, 23 Jul 2014
Question: I smashed my big toe along the bottom of its toe nail. It is continuing to bleed and I feel extremely dizzy and nauseous and start to sweat when I get up.

The toe nail was pierced during the dropping of the trailer so there is little pressure pain.

I'm more worried about the shock.

What should be my course of action?
