Why do I get a headache after smoking a cigarette?
I have just recently started smoking the occasional cigarette once or twice a week and after I’ve had one I get a crazy nicotine rush. I feel really dizzy. When the rush ends I have a headache for like 3 hours.
I was wondering if somebody could tell me why this is
BTW I am smoking Marlboro Lights

I know exactly how you feel, I was in a very similar situation. I remember that I was so nervous at that time and I took it out on everyone around me. I didnt know what could I do until, thanks god, I found Smoke Deter. Now I can look back and laugh on myself and in the same time I remember how helpless I was. I hope that I'll never be in the same situation again

it happens to all who take up smoking-its your body telling you to stop
its expensive,makes your breath smell,and KILLS you
stop before you start.
because smoking is bad for you
because you’re gay!
the nicotine is getting to your brain and killing brain cells =D
cuz every time u av a cigarette it raises your blood pressure and narrows your arteries
Speaking from personal experience- I’d say it’s because of the high blood pressure. I used to smoke and used to get dizzyness, because my blood pressure would go up. Be careful with that, as the arteries in the brain might blow if the blood pressure gets TOO high. (not likely with ciggs,but still be careful)
****Because you’re freaking SMOKING?!
Hello, does "MAY CAUSE SEVERE CANCER" mean anything to you?
Gawd, people could be so clueless.
If it can cause cancer, it can cause a lot of other sh!t.
Stop SMOKING. It’s not cool.
Don’t do it. Nicotine is far and away the most addictive drug there is. Carry on and you will be smoking more and more. Already, even if you stop now, you will often ‘fancy’ a cigarette for the rest of your life. If you think you’ll stop sometime in the future it will be much harder and you either won’t manage it or will suffer cravings periodically.
The rush and the headache are just signals to you of how powerful a drug it is. Carry on and you’ll get numb to those signals. The crazy thing is that unlike other recreational drugs there is no actual ‘high’, all nicotine does is stop you wanting nicotine – until it starts wearing off. Then you want it again.
I had this problem: I stopped! They say: when you have headache: it is because your leaver does not function well.
STOP! SMOKING KILLS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
it is because nicotine dilates your blood vessles indirectly as the extra blood pressure increases pressure on brain and muscles around the brain giving you headache.
I do not understand why this is a problem…you smoke & you pollute the air for others, you make yourself and everything around you stink, you have to pay to do it, you get the increased chance of all sorts of horrendous diseases…oh! and you get a headache. Maybe try not smoking or is that just not an option.
Well,
I totally agree,
Smoking kills.
My doctor warned that if I continue,
I may be traped in some very dangerous lung problem.
I would like to request to all readers to stop killing your self.
There are better ways to die.

Underoxygenated blood, caused by the nicotine narrowing arteries, leads to heart working harder, leads to increased blood pressure, leads to headaches. Especially if he’s not used to them.
