Hello,

Dizziness and numbness may be indicative of vestibular neuritis, neurological disorder, vitamin and nutritional deficiencies, diabetes, peripheral neuropathy, etc. You should get clinically examined by an ENT, get imaging tests and audiology tests done, get treated. Aniseikonia, can cause disorientation, eyestrain, headache, and dizziness and balance disorders. Get clinically examined by an Eye specialist, if pathology is detected, treatment will be done accordingly.

Dehydration, stressful lifestyle, anxiety, lack of sleep, BP issues, low blood pressure may cause dizziness. You are suggested to stay well hydrated and maintain sodium and potassium balance. Maintain your blood pressure and blood glucose level at all cost. Avoid any heavy work, avoid driving. Stay away from addictions if any.

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

Regards,
