Dizziness and Balance Resources

Dizziness is often a symptom of an underlying health condition and can be caused by a variety of physiological and psychological factors. Dizziness can be a result of vertigo. On the other hand, vertigo is caused by various inner ear or central nervous system disorders, such as BPPV, Meniere’s Disease and Labyrinthitis.

Dizziness can refer to lightheadedness, vertigo, lethargy, or a feeling of being out of balance. Severe cases can result in unsteadiness, vomiting or loss of consciousness. Learn about the common symptoms and causes of dizziness, how to diagnose it and the treatment options available here.
