Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post is attributed to stimulation of the vestibular apparatus in inner ear (it is associated with maintenance of body posture & balance)

Symptomatic relief can be obtained with Vestibular sedatives like Betahistine, nervigenic agents (like Vit B6, B12, Folic acid) & Pantoperazole (to be taken 30 minutes before meals).
Meanwhile, maintain adequate hydration, take a healthy balanced diet & avoid stress and sudden head movements.

Wishing a good health.
Take care.
