What Causes Dizziness During The Morning Time?
Question: Hi .. My son is 15 yrs old and he just feels little dizziness with face becoming hot sometimes in the morning.. It only lasts for about 5 seconds and has had this for a few days.. What could be the reason?
Brief Answer:
I would like to rule out autonomic disturbances
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
The common causes of dizziness in early morning are low blood pressure following prolonged recumbent position (due to orthostatic hypotension or autonomic changes),Low blood sugar and Low hemoglobin (uncommon as it is not associated with redness of face).
The uncommon cause is some cardiac problem causing low cardiac output.
So I would suggest you to get him clinically evaluated by a pediatrician.
I hope this answers your query.
Please do ask if you have any more query.
