Why do i feel so lightheaded after multiple sneezes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You may: Lower your pulse rate while sneezing, this is called vaso-vagal reflex... It can happen during straining while having constipation: pressing down on the diaphragm...Try to count your pulse ate the wrist level and see if this indeed the case...
