Dizziness and a sense of imbalance are common complaints. Correctly identifying the source is the key to the right approach.
Dizziness may be due to inner-ear problems, changes in blood pressure, medications or neurological causes. The type of spinning sensation and any accompanying symptoms guide the distinction.
An evaluation is recommended for recurrent dizziness, especially when accompanied by the symptoms above. Sudden dizziness with additional neurological symptoms requires emergency care.
The source of the dizziness is distinguished through examination and the necessary tests, and an individual follow-up plan is created.
