Question
Dear MR Sharma
Would you answer my question ?
The person how quits smoking feels headache, why ?
Thank you a lot .

Answer
Dear Rima,

Feeling of headache for couple of days in initial stages is felt on quitting smoking is because of increased blood flow in the body.

For the first few days after you have said goodbye to cigarettes, the most conspicuous change in the system appears in the form of a dipping blood sugar level. The ostensible symptoms come to happen basically due to the lessening of the total blood sugar amount. Dizziness, concentration lapse and other behavioral changes have been attributed to the sugar related phenomenon. Also, you may experience a sudden hankering for sweet food. The symptoms associated with the going down of blood sugar resemble the lack of oxygen in the system of any and every living being. This means that you have to encounter with a situation where you lack enough oxygen. This prevents the brain from working at its maximum capacity. This is where the symptoms like light-headedness and nausea originate.

I hope I was able to explain.

regards
