After workout headache

I have a workout question- Sometimes after I workout I get really confused (like unable to focus, converse, read...) and see spots afterward. This is typically followed by a terrible headache. Does this happen to anyone else? What can I do to stop it?

    Well this is worrying and you need to find the route cause. Are you eating before your workout? Are you working out too long and too hard? Have you been checked out by a doctor?

    A little bit of a headache is probably okay, but what you're describing isn't normal. I would really go get checked out by a doctor to make sure it's safe for you to exercise.

    Those symptoms are usually pretty indicative of low blood sugar and/or dehydration. Try eating before/during/after workout and/or drinking lots as well.
