Headaches caused by orthostatic hypotension require rest and proper physical management.

Do you know about orthostatic hypotension?

When standing up suddenly, brain blood flow temporarily decreases, causing blood pressure to drop.

Experiencing dizziness, headaches, and other symptoms.

It can be caused by unknown reasons, as well as by chronic conditions such as diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis.

In healthy individuals, the autonomic nervous system responds appropriately to maintain blood pressure without causing a decrease.

I am not able to do that. The cause is unknown, haha.

Basically, I have low blood pressure and anemia.

 

 

 

 

 

It's not always like that.

It seems to happen more often when I'm not feeling well or my physical condition is poor.

When lying down or sitting and then standing up

When everything in front of my eyes becomes dark, I can't see anything.

I feel dizzy, cannot keep my balance, and am short of breath.

Fortunately, after a few seconds, my vision was restored.

Headaches also quickly become bearable and improve.

 

 

After consulting at the hospital, it was determined that no significant treatment is necessary.

They told me to get up slowly so as not to affect my blood pressure when I wake up.

But I can't live in slow mode every time either.

I often forget and suddenly stand up as usual, only to collapse again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In such cases, 👍 taking a break is always the best.

Hold onto a wall or support object to prevent falling immediately.

If you sit or lie down and take deep breaths, your headache will be quickly relieved.

However, once symptoms appear, they tend to recur for a while.

Just be careful not to get up suddenly, as the doctor advised.

In my experience, it seems to become more apparent when my physical strength declines.

It's a very obvious thing to say, but

I think it's also important to improve your stamina by eating well and exercising regularly 💪

 

Could orthostatic hypotension be a symptom caused by another condition?

If you have symptoms like mine, be sure to consult with a hospital at least once~
