Help me fight this dizzy feeling

Dec 07, 2008

DIZZINESS can be caused by many things. You can get it when you are dehydrated, (have little water in your body), or when your blood pressure is low.

Ask the doctor with Dr. Paul Semugoma

Dear Doctor,
I have a problem with my balancing; kamunguluze in Luganda. I do not feel fine. I feel like I am going to fall. Please help.

Dear Aaron,
DIZZINESS can be caused by many things. You can get it when you are dehydrated, (have little water in your body), or when your blood pressure is low.

One can get it when one has little blood (anaemia) or one has bled a lot.
You can get it when you stand up from a lying or sitting position very quickly.

You can also get it as a side-effect of some drugs. An infection or problem of the inner ear, which is the organ of balance, can also cause dizziness.
It is a single symptom which may be caused by many things.

Go and see a doctor about this dizziness. You will be investigated to find out the problem. Once this is solved, you should feel much better.
