Ever felt lightheaded after you stood up suddenly?

Orthostatic hypotension is a condition in which your blood pressure quickly drops when you stand up after sitting or lying down. 

This type of low blood pressure can make you feel dizzy or faint. 

Anyone can get orthostatic hypotension, which is more common as you age. 

Multiple factors can increase risk, like anemia, dehydration, endocrine issues, heart conditions, pregnancy, neurologic conditions, and even going for long periods without being mobile.
