What Causes Dizziness And Severe Headache After Exercising?

Lately I have been having tunnel vision/dizzy after exercise followed by severe headaches. I have switched up times, food, water usage, etc. to isolate the problem, but it keeps happening. It happened again today and I did not even work up a sweat. I want to work out hard again, but I am afraid. Any ideas

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear user!
Welcome to HCM!

Headache and dizziness may be found in extreme physical activity due to increase of blood pressure. But it's not very usual in light activity.
I would like to know your age also to build up an idea about the reasons leading to those symptoms.

Anyway in your case I think some simple examinations would be worth to check your general heath status.
- Blood pressure monitoring
- Heart ECG
- Blood sugars and fats
- Carotid arteries ultrasound

If anything suspicious is found in these examinations we would like to know, so we can recommend you further steps to be followed and what doctor you should consult.

Meanwhile you keep having a balanced healthy diet and well hydrated.
All the best for you!
Kind regards!
DR ERIOL.
