It is in every person by nature to preserve his health and life. Jogging gives a lot of benefits. Thanks to him, you can strengthen the ligamentous and muscular apparatus, joints.
During a run, blood circulation increases, and organs and tissues are better saturated with oxygen. This prevents the heart and vascular system. However, there are times when you feel dizzy after running. Therefore, problems should be minimized.
Deterioration of the condition, with signs of dizziness occurs when there is a lack of oxygen in the body, signs of a cold, and an imbalance of power. It is necessary to accurately determine the true cause of the dizziness.
Why can you feel dizzy after running?
This happens in untrained people.
Main reasons:
- unbearable loads;
- malnutrition;
- the pressure has dropped or increased;
- stuffiness and high humidity;
- overheating in the heat;
- improper breathing technique;
- lack of oxygen;
- dehydration, etc.
Behavioral response
When your head starts spinning, it is a consequence of a behavioral reaction. The eyes, ears, muscles and tendons and skin are responsible for all actions.
Physiological response
Blood flow is formed depending on the position of the body. The feeling of spinning comes from a lack of oxygen in the brain or heart. Loss of balance is possible due to vestibular problems.
The reason for hiding is as follows:
- a tumor is found in the cerebellum;
- the pressure changes sharply up and down.
Hypoxia
It happens when the body experiences a sharp decrease or increase in load. At this moment, the heart cannot quickly reorient itself and blood oxygen saturation decreases.
This often happens in untrained people. In order not to expose your body to hypoxia, it is useful to start training in a mountainous area or on the seashore. The body will get used to low oxygen levels. As a result, his stamina will increase and his head will not begin to spin.
Symptoms for dizziness while jogging
There are four types of symptoms:
- Before the eyes, the movement of an object in one direction.
- Feeling of spinning inside the head. With the inability to describe it accurately.
- Loss of consciousness seems to be approaching.
- The person says that something is wrong with him.
How to avoid dizziness after running?
- You should start with small, slow paced runs for 10 minutes.
- Increase the workout, slowly listening to the body, choosing the best pace and distance.
- Daily loads should not exceed 15 km for women and 20 km for men. In the beginning, you can run up to 7 km.
- Eat well, but do not overeat.
- Monitor blood pressure.
- Avoid heatstroke.
- Exercise correctly while running.
- Observe breathing technique.
- After running, you do not need to stop, just walk for a couple of minutes.
- In case of serious deviations, change walking to running at a distance of two or three kilometers. Extend this to three weeks.
- When running in the evening, know that the body gets tired. If you have not eaten during the day, or it is damp from jogging outside, it becomes bad.
- It is important that there is a sufficient amount of glycogen in the blood. This substance is a fuel for muscles. For experienced runners, it is enough for a distance of 30 kilometers, if it runs fast. An ordinary person has enough for 5 km.
Ways to diagnose dizziness
Someone thinks that dizziness cannot be cured. This is not true. First you need to get tested.
Check the function of these bodies:
- The vestibular apparatus is responsible for movement. Its function is to analyze the fluid filling the semicircular canals as soon as the body makes a turn. When the muscles are under stress, the body receives a signal about the force of gravity to the earth.
- The visual receptors control body position. They accelerate or decrease the perception of movement or being at rest of objects that are next to us.
- Receptors in the skin and muscles transmit signals to the brain. When running faster, these changes are not immediately noticed.
It is advisable to conduct several examinations to establish an accurate diagnosis.
These types of surveys will give good results:
- Carrying out tests on computer or videographic equipment that record eye movements and their reactions.
- Hearing function examination.
- Check blood vessels, brain, endocrine system on a tomograph.
- Research of biochemical blood test, etc.
Treating dizziness after running
From time to time in the fall and spring, you need to strengthen the blood vessels. This will help with droppers, physiotherapy, acupuncture and a visit to a chiropractor who will do the right massage.
To normalize cerebral circulation, use drugs prescribed by a doctor. They allow oxygenation of the brain and improve the functioning of the vestibular apparatus. This will improve the balance of the body, restore attention, memory, the head will not be dizzy.
In some cases, rehabilitation programs will help, special exercises to restore all affected areas of the central nervous system.
If the cause is a vision problem, optical correction will be performed. If a cataract is found, surgical treatment is proposed to replace the lens of the eye.
Traditional methods
- Herbs that are vasodilating will do. A decoction of valerian, hawthorn, hazel, parsnip, chamomile, etc.
