lightheadedness

Lightheadedness is a feeling of faintness or dizziness often caused by a temporary decrease in blood flow or oxygen to the brain. It can occur due to factors such as dehydration, low blood pressure, standing up too quickly, or inner ear issues that affect balance. Sometimes, it results from low blood sugar, anemia, or medication side effects. While usually mild and short-lived, persistent or severe lightheadedness should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to identify and treat the underlying cause. It’s important to stay hydrated, avoid sudden movements, and seek medical advice if symptoms worsen.
