Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Fainting: Were you dehydrated? hot? in pain? in a strange bodily position? over- exercised? You may not need to consult a physician if this is a one time thing and you fainted only briefly with complete recovery. However, if this occurs again or you have any residuals then assessment would be prudent.
