Reasons for why the head is spinning with a sharp rise
The head is spinning when the body is raised:
- in the morning, after sleep;
- with a sharp rise from a sitting or lying position, which the person has occupied for some time.
When you move to a vertical position, the pressure drops. To compensate for this, the body provokes an increase in the frequency of heart beats (by about 10 units), which entails an acceleration of blood circulation. But the blood vessels narrow down, so most of the blood can not get into the brain. This causes dizziness. This phenomenon is also called orthostatic hypotension.
If this condition is very rare and very quickly (2-3 seconds) passes, then, then you are healthy. Just too quickly rose, so your body could not coordinate the activities of their organs, and there was a hitch in the supply of blood with oxygen to the brain. If there are no problems, then the body quickly starts to work properly.
