The child said he was dizzy. What's going on?

Only young people suffer from dizziness due to overwork or long periods of time in front of computers or playing with mobile phones. However, many parents will find that some children also experience dizziness. Dizziness in children may be caused by several factors, such as ischemia, colds, fever, and inflammation, all of which may cause dizziness.

Conditions that can cause dizziness in children are usually seen in the following diseases.

1. It may be orthostatic adjustment disorder, which is obvious when the child gets up in the morning or stands up from a squatting position. This disease is not an organic lesion in the heart or brain. The disease will gradually improve or heal with age.

2. To rule out blood system diseases in children, nutritional iron deficiency anemia is the most common anemia in children in China. If the child has severe anemia, it can cause dizziness, fatigue and other symptoms. The simplest way is to give the child a routine blood test.

3. Pay attention to whether your child has viral myocarditis. This disease is often seen after a cold, when the virus invades the myocardium. The child may show symptoms such as fatigue, palpitations, chest tightness, and dizziness. Electrocardiogram combined with myocardial enzyme spectrum examination can help confirm the diagnosis.

4. Pay attention to whether your child has sinusitis. This disease is also common after repeated upper respiratory tract infections. Children may have headaches, dizziness, and aversion to learning, which are often more obvious in the morning. Anterior and posterior radiographs of the sinuses can help with diagnosis.

The above points are just some of the more common diseases that can cause dizziness in children. They are not comprehensive, but just give you a general idea. Because there are many situations that can cause dizziness, it is recommended that you take your child to the hospital to see a pediatrician and give targeted examinations and treatments.

What should I do if my child feels dizzy?

When a child feels dizzy, he or she will tell the parents that he or she feels uncomfortable, dizzy, nauseous and other symptoms. At this time, parents should pay attention to it, promptly ask the child whether the condition is serious or not, and then help the child adjust in time and get rid of the torture of the illness as soon as possible.

Children with dizziness should be taken care of and their diet should be adjusted. The child's diet should be nutritious, fresh and light. Eat more eggs, lean meat, vegetables and fruits. Avoid eating fatty, sweet and spicy foods, such as fatty meat, fried foods, alcohol, chili peppers, etc.

Parents should watch their children and ensure they get a normal rest and enough sleep. Don't get too excited about playing and forget to take a rest.

Mental care should not be neglected either. Mental stimulation such as depression and anger can cause hyperactivity of liver yang or internal movement of liver wind. Always pay attention to the child's emotions, let the child maintain a happy mood, and do not let the child be in a sad mood for a long time.

Observe the child's head for any injuries. Injuries may also cause dizziness, so parents should take good care of their children and prevent them from getting hurt.

Take your child for a detailed examination. Anemia in children is also a cause of dizziness, so check the child's physical signs to see if there are any symptoms of anemia.
