Q. Why do I feel dizzy and have a headache only when I have indigestion (Phlegm Dizziness, Damhun)?
It is because waste products (known as *dam-eum*, or pathological fluid accumulation) in the digestive system have blocked the flow of vital energy (qi) to the head. This condition is referred to as *dam-hun* (phlegm-induced dizziness). Characteristic symptoms include a feeling of heaviness in the body when it rains, being prone to motion sickness, and experiencing nausea. Treating the digestive system (through *geodam*, or resolving phlegm) is essential for the dizziness to subside.
