Question

I had hit my little toe on the bottom of my bed, it bled. then i went to tell my mother limping, but then the toenail was all pushed up. I began to feel like i was about to die. Then i passed out for a minute or so. Is that normal?

Answer 1

It is common for people to feel faint at things like the sight of blood or when seeing an unusual or severe injury; however, it isn't 'normal' because the fainting is caused by phobia that causes an irrational overreaction to the sight of blood or an injury. Not a big deal one way or another - you didn't faint because of some medical problem, you fainted because of a psychological reaction.
