dizziness

dizziness, or light-headedness, is a feeling of unsteadiness. dizziness can lead to feeling faint or to fainting (brief loss of consciousness).

dizziness can be caused by many things, including stress and/or certain medicines.

dizziness often goes away or improves after lying down. if it does not, it may be linked with conditions related to the inner ear or brain function.
