Dizziness

Dizziness is the feeling of unsteadiness, lightheadedness, or vertigo. It is a common symptom of many medical conditions, including inner ear infection, low blood pressure, dehydration, and heart conditions. It can also be a side effect of certain medications. It is usually accompanied by a feeling of nausea and a spinning sensation, and can be triggered by sudden movements or changes in position. Treatment usually involves ruling out more serious conditions, such as stroke, and may include lifestyle changes, medications, and physical therapy.
