Vertigo Problem

What is Vertigo Problem ?

Vertigo is that feeling of dizziness. It makes you feel like you are spinning and losing balance even though you are well supported. You may also feel lightheadedness and lose control over your limbs. This problem may arise from trauma to the head, inner ear infections, pathologies, trauma involving the side of the head, seizures, meningitis, tumors at the brain stem, vascular abnormalities, and/or psychogenic causes. The patient may feel a tingling sensation in their ears, temporary hearing loss during an episode, feeling of fullness in their ears, nausea, vomiting, and elevated blood pressure. The different types of vertigo based on the occurrence are central vertigo and peripheral vertigo.

  • You may be able to do hemodialysis at home. Normally, hemodialysis begins well before your kidneys have shut down to the point of causing life-threatening complications.

How is it done?

  • The underlying cause must be fished out and treated. Separate treatments for head trauma, infections, and pathologies exist.
  • The patient is put on medication which is in the form of a daily dose, and/or can be used during an episode. Medication is targeted to decrease the symptoms like nausea and dizziness.
  • The patient should be wary of triggers like loud sounds, bright light, and stress. The patient is put on certain adaptation exercises to help with trigger situations.
  • Intratympanic antibiotic injections may be given to decrease the effect of the underlying infection or pathology.
  • If the condition persists, then surgery is advised. This will be done in two phases – destructive and constructive, where the underlying problem will be surgically treated and the defects re-constructed.
