Nausea

Nausea isn't a common cause of light-headedness, but the two can be experienced simultaneously. Nausea may be described as an uneasiness of mild or moderate severity in the abdominal area or stomach. A fever, the common cold and food poisoning may cause nausea and light-headedness.1‘Lightheaded?

If a person has a sharp or persistent pain on the right side of their abdomen along with light-headedness, nausea, vomiting, low-grade fever and sweating, it may be due to appendicitis, requiring immediate medical attention.6‘Appendicitis.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 24 May 2019, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/appendicitis/symptoms-causes/syc-20369543
