What Causes Dizziness?

I was trying to fix a rubber watch strap that had partly broken. I thought by melting along the break and rejoining would work. So heated knife and applied. It melted but did not fix it. Probably did it for maybe a few mins . Now feeling slightly dizzy and even after 2 hrs still so a little. I am 44 man. Am i being over concerned?
