You will get better!  The main concern is damaged muscle tissue if you were really unconscious.  The best thing to do is drink lots of fluids.  One 8 ounce glass of water every hour at a minimum,  This will allow the damaged muscle tissue to pass through the blood stream and through the kidneys without damaging them.  Keep that leg elevated and wiggle your toes frequently to keep from getting a blood clot.  If you can't wiggle your toes or if the calf gets rock hard or if your foot starts becoming pale or painful, see a doctor right away.  Good luck I think you will be better in a about 3 days.

You mean like in shock\n\nLie patient down, elevate feet, keep them warm, call 911.\n\nThey will need I.V. fluids as soon as possible, and there are certain medications they can recieve in the ER that will help, also.

I'm guessing by moving your legs you're moving blood up to your brain.  \n\nSoldiers who stand at attention too long can faint, because there's no movement to get blood up to the brain.

I've "blacked out" as if I was going to faint...lasted for a few seconds, but then I would sit down and breathe slowly and it was ok.  That's only when I was like really dehydrated and had been forced to run miles or someting...

Definitely Consult a doctor.\n\nHowever... most fainting is as a result of lack of BLOOD FLOW.  This may seem WEIRD... but it's a technique that ASTRONAUTS use and TEST PILOTS\n\nSometimes, due to EXTREME Velocities.. the blood rushes from their brain.  If you think it's EMBARRASSING to black out when your scared... it can be DEADLY to these guys.\n\nHere is a technique.. and I'm NOT kidding.. or being disrespectful.. what they do... when they feel they are getting LIGHT HEADED... is CLENCH their BUTT CHEEK as hard as they can.  (I mean it)... there is a lot of blood in the tissue... that gets infused into your blood stream when you do this.\n\nIt add as much as a few ounces and increases your blood pressure momentarily... maybe long enough to remain conscience...  These TEST PILOTS do it all the time.\n\nI know it sound strange... but it really works.\n\nPLEASE see a doctor.  At 14, nobody should be blacking out.\n\n&tan

That is called orthostatic hypotension.  Actually, it is because the blood is rushing out of your head that you are dizzy.  This can be the result of a number of medical problems, or developing problems, including anemia and hypothyroidism.  It can also have something to do with not drinking enough liquids or not enough salt.  Your diet may very well be contributing to it.\n\nNow, as for the question about splotches of white, you are indeed on the way to passing out.  The pressure sensors (called baroreceptors) trigger your heart to pump harder, but they don't always catch things in time.  It is possible to pass out from this condition.  It's best to get up slowly.\n\nTalk with your doctor about it.  This is something that should be taken care of before you get hurt with it.

you can get a transfusion if your doctor thinks it is necessary.  I know there are some herbs and stuff that bring it up we used some when my grandmother was sick but i forget what they are maybe you should goggle it or something

do you mean a crash cart?  if so, that has items to use on someone who is not breathing (crashing)... i.e. oxygen, backboard, some meds

Get the victim out of the water if you can do so safely. \nMonitor for breathing and pulse. If no breathing and no pulse, do CPR. If no breathing, but there is a pulse, do rescue breathing.If victim is breathing and has a pulse, put him or her in the recovery position. This position keeps the airway clear and allows swallowed water or vomit to drain. \nTake cold, wet clothes off the victim and cover him or her with something warm to prevent hypothermia.Get Emergency Care and give first aid before emergency care:

like one of the other answers says it has to do with circulation.  there is a node in your lower leg that helps regulate circulation when standing. if you aren't moving this node can't recurculate your blood and you pass out.  that is why guards have to move around from time to time to help activiate this node to get blood up from your lower extremeties

Give them IV fluids. Elevate thier legs.

Some beliefs state that some native African tribes can bring back the dead in the form of zombies.\n\nScientifically, he answer is yes at times. When people just begin dying by heart failure, they can be brought back to life by electric impulses. But for a very limited number of cases under certain circumstances. ANd only  if done at the right time.\n\nIn other words, most of the times, it's NO as an answer.

salve.  Like you put salve on a boo-boo.

CPR should be used if breathing or pulse seems dangerously low. Any burns should be treated.\n\nLots more info at the link below.

Don't do it unless you have to. The thorax has to be in the cradle of the elbow and put firm pressure on the neck. Eventually your subject will faint due to lack of oxygen to the brain. They can breath but the blood flow isn't going to the brain. It is not magic. Don't do it to anyone for the sake of doing it. It can harm someone and possibly kill them.
