What Causes Feeling Of Fainting While Bending Down?
I bent over and almost fainted. I immediately went to the bed and bent over to pick up my small dog and the fainting feeling was worse - when the floor/eyes started spinning - I fell toward the bed. The bed was then spinning. When I sat straight up, it all stopped. What is wrong?
it is a condition called orthostatic hypotension. it usually occur elderly people. due to insufficient blood flow to the upper part of the body because of sudden change in body position can lead to this condition. It is quite common . nothing to worry about. it may occur in low blood pressure also.
