Fainting is a sudden loss of consciousness, usually temporary and typically caused by a lack of oxygen in the brain.<\/p>\n<p>Fainting is most commonly caused by a temporary malfunction in the autonomic nervous system. This type of fainting is sometimes known as neurally mediated syncope.<\/p>\n<p>The autonomic nervous system is made up of the brain, nerves and spinal cord. It regulates automatic bodily functions, such as heart rate and blood pressure.<\/p>\n<p>An external trigger \u2013 such as an unpleasant sight, heat or sudden pain \u2013 can temporarily cause the autonomic nervous system to stop working properly, resulting in a fall in blood pressure and fainting.<\/p>\n<p>It may also cause your heartbeat to slow down or pause for a few seconds, resulting a temporary interruption to the brain&#8217;s blood supply. This is called vasovagal syncope.<\/p>\n<p>Syncope is a mechanism used by the brain to help us survive. If brain blood and oxygen levels drop considerably the brain immediately shuts down all other non-vital parts of the body so that resources can focus primarily on vital organs.<\/p>\n<p>What to do if you feel faint:<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t stay standing up. Find somewhere to either sit or lie down.<br \/>\nIf you manage to sit down place your head between your knees.<br \/>\nWhen you do get up, do so slowly.<\/p>\n<p>People should see their doctor if things go severe.<\/p>\n<p>Hope you get an idea why people faint and what are the causes of fainting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why do people faint?
