What Causes Dizziness, Imbalance, Watery Eyes And Puffiness Under Eyes?

Hi I have been feeling dizzy and have had problems with my balance for the past 3 days. I have also had an ear ache for the past 2 days and this morning I woke up with a puffy under eye on the right side. I had an incident where I choked on food on Sunday, very painful throat after it also lots of fluids running eyes nose not sure if that is relevant. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Allergic reactions to certain food or environmental conditions may trigger choking. Since you have puffy eyes and running eyes-nose it is indicative of allergy. You can take non sedating antihistamines for relief. Gargle your throat with warm salt water 2-3 times a day to feel better. Dizziness, imbalance since 3 days with history of ear ache may be indicative of some ear problem like wax in the middle ear, vertigo or some trauma to the ear drum.

You are suggested to visit an ENT, get clinically examined. If its Vertigo, you will be treated with medicines and given rest for a few days. Avoid doing heavy work or driving since you have co ordination problem. You may be recommended to get audiometry test done to stay on the safer side. If it is wax causing the problem, you will be given ear drop and the ENT will do the ear washing which is a medical procedure done in the clinic/OPD.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
