Understanding Vertigo

Vertigo can be a distressing condition characterized by sudden bouts of extreme dizziness, making you feel like you or your surroundings are spinning. Various factors such as inner ear issues, infections, tumors, or head injuries can trigger vertigo, leading to symptoms like headaches, abnormal eye movements, and hearing disturbances.

Causes of Vertigo

The common causes of vertigo include various factors related to inner ear problems and other conditions affecting balance mechanisms. Some of the most frequent causes are:

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): This occurs due to dislodged calcium particles in the inner ear, leading to brief episodes of intense dizziness triggered by specific head movements.

Meniere's Disease: Characterized by fluid buildup and changing pressure in the ear, causing vertigo episodes along with symptoms like ringing in the ears and hearing loss.

Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis: Inflammation of the inner ear due to infection, resulting in vertigo, nausea, and sometimes vomiting.

Migraine: Certain types of migraines can also cause vertigo episodes.

Head or Neck Injury: Trauma to the head or neck can sometimes lead to vertigo.

Brain Problems: Conditions like stroke, tumor, or brain infections can also be underlying causes of vertigo.

These causes can manifest differently in individuals, impacting their sense of balance and triggering vertigo episodes with varying intensities and durations.
