If you are getting dizzy when you cough or laugh you need to see a doctor. Sometimes the carotid artery is partially blocked and the blood flow to the brain is already reduced as a result. The coughing or laughing could temporarily reduce the flow to a dangerous level through the stiffening of the neck or tightening of neck and chest muscles. Depending on your age, diet, weight, whether or not you are a smoker and your family health history you might need to be concerned about this. This could be very serious and if you are driving you could crash as my father did or if you fall you could hit your head on something and cause serious injury. This is very serious and should be addressed right away.
