Contributed by: Worthington
  • 1. Vertigo is a medical condition characterized by a sensation of spinning or dizziness, often accompanied by a feeling that both the person and their surroundings are moving. This disorienting experience can be triggered by a variety of causes including inner ear disturbances, vestibular system issues, or even neurological disorders. Individuals suffering from vertigo may find it challenging to maintain balance, leading to potential falls, nausea, and a sense of disconnection from reality. The intensity and duration of vertigo can vary widely, with some experiencing brief episodes while others endure chronic symptoms. Common types of vertigo include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which occurs with changes in head position, and vestibular neuritis, typically resulting from a viral infection. Treatment options for vertigo depend on its underlying cause and may include medications, physical therapy, or lifestyle adjustments. Understanding and managing vertigo is crucial, as it can significantly impact a person's quality of life and ability to perform daily activities.
