Question

After having breakfast in the morning, I sat in the library and couldn’t concentrate on reading. I’ve been feeling dizzy and headachy, and even blinking feels tiring. I don’t know what the cause could be.

Answer

Dizziness and headache can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Hypertension can lead to dysfunction of cerebral vascular constriction, causing headache, dizziness, and headachiness; 2. Insufficient or poor-quality sleep can result in insufficient rest for brain tissue, leading to dizziness, heavy-headedness, and headachiness during the day; 3. In elderly patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis, increased cerebral vascular resistance and slower blood flow speed can cause brain ischemia and hypoxia, leading to persistent dizziness and headachiness; 4. Ophthalmic diseases can also cause dizziness and headachiness.
