Vertigo<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>

What is vertigo?<\/strong><\/p>

Vertigo is a sensation of spinning dizziness. Vertigo is a symptom, rather than a condition itself,where a person feels as if they or the objects around them are moving when they are not.<\/p>

Causes of Vertigo<\/strong><\/p>

Vertigo is often caused by an inner ear problem. Some of the most common causes include:<\/p>

Labyrinthitis<\/strong>: This is an inflammation of the inner ear labyrinth.<\/p>

Vestibular neuronitis<\/strong>: Inflammation of the vestibular nerve, usually due to a viral infection.<\/p>

Cholesteatoma<\/strong>: This is a skin growth that occurs in the middle ear, usually as a result of repeated infection. If the growth becomes larger, it can damage the ear, leading to hearing loss and dizziness.<\/p>

M\u00e9ni\u00e8re’s disease<\/strong>: A buildup of fluid in the inner ear can lead to attacks of vertigo with ringing in the ears and hearing loss.<\/p>

BPPV (<\/strong>Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo):<\/strong> This is thought to stem from a disturbance in the otolith particles. These are the crystals of calcium carbonate within inner ear fluid that touch the sensory hair cells inside the semicircular canals during movement.<\/p>

Symptoms of<\/strong> Vertigo<\/strong><\/p>

A person with vertigo will have a sense that their head, or their surrounding environment, is moving or spinning.<\/p>
