In most cases, after climbing stairs headaches usually do not require serious attention. But if it keeps recurring events, is likely to be a signal of an underlying medical condition that one of them is anemia.
Anemia is a condition characterized by red blood cell count decreased in the blood or it could also be caused by a number of red blood cells than normal.
These red blood cells carries oxygen to the brain and other organs as well, if the amount is reduced then there are parts of the body including the brain is not getting enough oxygen.
When climbing the stairs of the body including the brain needs more oxygen. But if a person has anemia intake of oxygen will be fewer, if it continues to be forced to make a person feel dizzy or sick in the head, as quoted from Livestrong, Friday (12/30/2011).
In addition to anemia, pain in the head can also be caused by low blood pressure because the heart rate below normal. When a person is standing or climbing stairs, blood pressure will increase to pump more blood around the body.
But if someone had a blood disease is low, the body can not pump blood to meet the need that resulted in headaches when climbing stairs or thereafter.
Other conditions that could be the cause is low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), because the body lacks the sugar that becomes the main source of fuel, especially the brain. If it is caused by low blood sugar levels, pain in the head sometimes accompanied by blurred vision.
While other conditions that could be the cause of the emergence of a headache after climbing the stairs is poor air circulation and dehydration.
