Dizziness during the sleep

Question

Asked for Male, 8 Years

My son who is 8 years old suddenly woke up in the night and said he has dizziness but slept without any issues. When I asked him in the morning he said it was mild dizziness. He is a very normal kid who is studying in 3rd standard without any health issues. But he had a traumatic head injury at the time of the delivery. As I said he recovered completely without any major issues. I may be over reacting but just want to understand and be cautious I want to know is there anything to be concerned for the recent dizziness he had. He had it only once in the sleep.
