Dizziness when lying down
8 days ago, my head suddenly got dizzy while i was lying on the bed. And since that day, i started noticing that whenever i put my head on the pillow and try to move my head, i feel dizzy for a second, and without pillow, its absolutely fine. And yesterday, while looking up, i suddenly got dizzy severely. And now whenever i am lying down also, i get dizzy for a second. Is it because of my neck? Because i have a bit neck pain also. And since some months, my neck is getting strained a lot. I am really worried about the dizziness. Please help 🙏
