Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does Dizziness Along With Headaches And Sore Neck Indicate Vertigo?
I am having dizzy spells, I m light headed, headache sometimes stabbing, heavy head, sore neck. I think it s vertigo but this is the first time I have experienced this. This started 5 days ago. Does it sound like just vertigo and I should just wait it out or should I be seen? Trying not to rake up the med bills but I feel horrible.
How old are you? Possible causes for dizziness from your symptoms are cervical spondylosis with compressive neuropathy/ myelopathy or neck muscle spasm with BPPV or occipital neuralgia with viral labyrinthitis etc. You have to be evaluated for other possible causes like infections, hypoglycemia or anemia. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet Vertin thrice a day for five days. Use neck support. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
