A member asked:
I slept on my neck wring and now whenever i stand up from lying down i am very dizzy. is is something serious? will it pass?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prob not: Dizziness upon standing is usually not related to sleeping on the neck wrong. It is called orthostatic hypotension and it is very common and usually not serious. Unclear if it will improve over time but simple things like wearing compression stalkings or getting up more gradually from a lying position can help.
