Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Spinning Head, Lights Flashing, Side Stiff Neck?
I had spinning head, lights flashing one night when I lay on my right side. When I woke in morning I had right side stiff neck and pressure on one side of head like sinus. Next night dizzy when I lied down woke up soaking wet. Dizziness only when I lie down. Pressure only on one side all the time. Had rectocele repair one week ago could it be connected?
You are suffering from vertebrobasilar insufficiency - i.e. reduced blood flow in the brain due to certain bad postures. I suggest you get X rays of the neck as the first step and doing neck strengthening exercises.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
