What Causes Dizziness And Nausea Along With Tinnitus And Earache?
Hello, I am a daily smoker but I usually only smoke 2 or 3 per day and in the evening. Last night I smoked 2 in a row and when I stood up I started to feel dizzy and nauseous. Afterwards I felt weak and heavy, my ear started to hurt and they were ringing. Shortly after I past out. When I woke up I continue to feel weak and nauseous. Did the smoking cause me to faint?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Smoking is seen to affect auditory apparatus, middle ear function & Eustachian tube function also. So your symptoms can be attributed to smoking habit.
Please consult an ENT specialist and get investigated, treated specifically. Till then stop smoking, take rest, try to chew chewing gum and take Tab. Diziron over the counter for relief.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
