My 10 years old is having a problem since last 6 months. In last 6 months at least three times he has got dizzy and he just faints. For sometime he is not in his senses and when he comes to senses he has severe headache for a couple of hours. I the beginning I did not realize that he was having some problem. I thought that it was something for once.
Recently I have consulted a doctor and many tests are being taken but still there is no outcome. Please share if anyone has come across any such issue.
binisha, my suggestion is that you should not ignore such issues with your kid. Please consult a specialist asap. It could have something to do with some internal injury so do the best you can to get to know the reason.
Your son could have some internal problem. Take him to some good doctor. One of my cousin used to get unconscious once in couple of months and my uncle & aunt delayed his treatment thinking everything was just due to weakness as he might not be eating well. Things got worse and later had to go through a serious operation.
Getting unconscious so frequently is definitely not a good signal. I know a neighbor of mine used to get such attacks and later it was found that he had a brain tumor. I do not want to scare you but just want to be alert and take necessary actions.
My daughter had similar problem when she was 6 years old and doctors told that in her brain some vein is pressed and they gave some medicines. Now also she has problems once or twice and on giving medicine she is fine. No other solution has been recommended.
