: For those who suffer from headaches , migraines or epilepsy, using a compact fluorescent lamp at home can cause some physical problems. If left in the light for a long time, the migraine patient may have a migraine attack. Epilepsy patients may have a sudden epileptic attack. In addition, healthy people may experience minor headaches , fatigue , nausea or dizziness. It has even been reported that lupus patients experience pain in the body if they are exposed to this light for long periods of time. These problems are more common in older technology bulbs. However, new technology bulbs have reduced this problem a lot. Energy saving bulbs also have some environmental disadvantages. These bulbs should not be thrown away or broken in the normal way after use. When the gaseous substance inside the bulb falls to the ground, it drastically reduces the fertility of the soil. So care should be taken while disposing of damaged bulbs. Although Europe and America have a system to recycle damaged bulbs, such a system has not been developed in our country till date.
