What Causes Recurrent Dizziness And Pain In The Right Thigh And Knee?

I m experiencing very regular lightheadness. Dizzy. Like I m going to faint but I don t. Generally I m really fit and active but my body feels heavy lately and my muscles tight. I keep getting pains in my right hip thigh and knee ( I rub on magnesium and this seems to help). I feel I m urinating quite a lot, maybe twice an hour, but I do try to drink a lot of water. I m also experiencing pains similar to period pains but there not during my cycle. Been quite a heavy drinker for many years but upon feeling this way I have given up and not had a drink for 2 months. This seems to have made the lightheadness more frequent. Also feeling regular fatigue when I m normally full of energy. Craving more sugar foods when I generally eat a very very healthy diet with a super low salt and sugar intake. I m a smoker aged 40.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

What I can advise after going through your complaints is to get your blood pressure and sugar level checked. There are a lot of causes for dizziness and generalized weakness and fatigue. Sometimes it can also be due to alcohol withdrawal. I would suggest you visit your general practitioner and get your blood pressure and sugar level checked.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar
