Vertigo Drops: Vertigo is a particular type of dizziness marked by an erroneous sense of movement, typically a spinning or whirling sensation. Balance and coordination are impacted, which can be an unpleasant condition. Here are some typical vertigo signs and contributing factors:
Symptoms of dizziness
- Sensation of spinning or whirling: Perception that one's body or the environment are spinning or moving.
- Vomiting and nausea: These symptoms are frequently accompanied with nausea, which in extreme circumstances can also cause vomiting.
- Inability to maintain stability and a sense of unsteadiness are symptoms of balance loss.
- Increased sweating and dizziness: Feeling dizzy or faint, as well as increased sweating.
- Nystagmus: Rapid, jerky, or bouncing eye movements that are uncontrollably made.
Causes of Vertigo
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): The balance organs are impacted when tiny calcium crystals in the inner ear become displaced.
- Vestibular neuritis: An infection with a virus frequently causes inflammation of the vestibular nerve.
- Meniere's Disease: A condition of the inner ear that causes vertigo attacks, hearing loss, tinnitus (ear ringing), and a sense of fullness in the affected ear.
- Vertigo that is specifically linked to headaches is known as migraine-associated vertigo.
- Disorders of the inner ear: Ménière's disease, acoustic neuroma, and labyrinthitis are all conditions that can cause vertigo.
- Medication: As a side effect, some drugs, particularly those that influence the inner ear or the brain's balance centres, can cause vertigo.
