Is Your Dizziness Accompanied By These Symptoms?
Dizziness can be caused by a lack of sleep, a poor diet, excessive exercise, or a disease such as a head cold or flu. It can also be caused by something as simple as abruptly rising after lying or sitting for an extended time. Dizziness may be accompanied by the following symptoms:
Loss of balance
Feeling faint
Tunnel vision
Light-headedness or
heavy-headedness
Seeing a physical therapist is the best way to discover the cause of your dizziness. There could be another underlying factor that you are unaware of.
Look Out For These Vertigo Symptoms
An imbalance in the inner ear, also known as the "vestibular system," is the most common cause of vertigo. By sending signals about your movement to your brain, your vestibular system helps you maintain your balance and center of gravity. If this system is damaged or malfunctioning, the impulses required to keep you balanced are unable to reach your brain.
Vertigo is a natural reaction in which your body becomes unbalanced. This is difficult to manage because it interferes with your daily routine and lifestyle. Even when you are sitting, vertigo causes you to feel as if you are "rocking" or "spinning."
