Suggest Treatment For Vertigo, Fluctuations In Heart Beat And Headaches

I have constant reassuring vertigo. Dr said ear problem. Said would go away on own but had it for 8months. Hax to get adjustment. Keeps coming back with no known cause. Think it could be something else. Been having heart beat fluctuations and headaches. What to do?

Hi,

•     Vertigo is a symptom, rather than a condition itself and treatment depends on right cause. You should see you GP if you have persistent signs of vertigo or it keeps coming back.

Causes of vertigo may include: benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, migraines – severe headaches, labyrinthitis – an inner ear infection. Medicines, such as prochlorperazine and some antihistamines, can help in the early stages or most cases of vertigo.

Also, we recommend: do simple exercises to correct your symptoms, sleep with your head slightly raised on two or more pillows, avoid bending down to pick up items, avoid extending your neck – for example, while reaching up to a high shelf.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
