Overcoming Vertigo: A Guide

Even when you are standing still, vertigo can cause a feeling of movement. The world appears to be spinning or moving. Vertigo can be acute or chronic, and it is sometimes difficult to maintain balance and carry out everyday tasks. Vertigo symptoms can last a short time or longer. In severe vertigo symptoms can be constant.

Vertigo causes

Vertigo is caused by an inner-ear imbalance. Vertigo can also be caused by other conditions:

• Meniere’s disease is a disorder that affects the inner ears and causes an imbalance.
• Migraines are severe headaches
• Inflammation in the vestibular nervous system that transmits balance-controlling messages from the inner ears to the brain
• Viral infections of the inner ear and injuries to the brain or brainstem can also cause vertigo.
• Stroke
• When the head is held at different angles, it can cause benign positional vertigo.
• Vertigo can be caused by a lack of blood supply to the brain due to static hypotension

Vertigo symptoms

• Light-headedness is a common condition
• Náuseas y vómitos
• The room feels like it is spinning.
• Drowsiness can be caused by a loss of balance
• Visión doble

Tratamiento convencional

Vertigo is treated with medications that relieve nausea and reduce the feeling of spinning. Antidepressants are another medication that can help reduce symptoms, but they have many side effects.
