Dizziness when lying down

The brain plays a very important role in the body. It can give people a sense of balance and prevent the body from standing unsteadily. Problems with the brain's sense of balance can lead to serious problems such as dizziness, adding a lot of difficulties to people's lives. There are many specific manifestations of dizziness. Among them, dizziness when lying down is the most common. Let’s take a look at why you feel dizzy when lying down.

There are several types of dizziness.

There are several possible causes for the symptoms.

Vertigo can be divided into two categories: one is "ordinary dizziness" and the other is "recurrent vertigo" caused by problems with the balance system. Dr. Tang pointed out that many cases of dizziness are "common dizziness", which may be caused by a cold, infection, or high or low blood pressure. However, when these problems disappear, the dizziness will also subside. As for the condition generally described as "ear water imbalance", it is usually caused by problems with the balance system, resulting in a feeling of dizziness and seasickness.

The causes include cervical spondylosis, and some dizziness is caused by poor balance of the brain. For example, Meniere's disease is a disease caused by enlargement or effusion of the inner ear lymph nodes. The patient will suddenly feel dizzy, which usually only lasts for a few tens of seconds.

Functional hypoglycemia

It can also cause dizziness, palpitations, weakness, tremors when on an empty stomach or when exerting force, sometimes convulsions, loss of consciousness, etc. When you are emotionally stressed or hyperventilating, respiratory alkali poisoning may occur due to increased carbon dioxide excretion, brain cell hypoxia, causing dizziness and fatigue. The patient may also feel numbness and coldness in the face, hands and feet, and occasionally a sense of trance.

Vasoinhibitory dizziness

It is often triggered by emotional tension, pain, fear, bleeding, hot weather, fatigue, cavity, insomnia, etc. Patients often experience autonomic nervous system dysfunction such as dizziness, vertigo, nausea, upper abdominal discomfort, pale complexion, cold sweats, etc. At that time, blood pressure dropped and pulse was weak. Vasoinhibitory dizziness is more common in frail young women. Orthostatic hypotension refers to symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, weak legs, vertigo, and even fainting when standing, often accompanied by anorexia and urinary and bowel disorders.
