Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Sometimes I feel like fainting when I get my nails done (which I don t do anymore) or even when I am listening to someone with a certain type of voice. I have fainted while getting nails done, shadowing someone at work, and almost during a dental cleaning. I have no other medical issues and am overall healthy. Why would certain situations make me faint?
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. You might be having vaso vagal syncope. It is parasympathetic response of the body. It is not pathological. It is normal for some individuals. Affected individuals get fainting attacks while doing specific actions like seeing blood, sudden dark or excessive light etc. In your case menicure and dental procedures are provocating factors. Only cure is drinking too much fluids before these procedures. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
