Hello,
Could be a muscular-skeletal or pinched nerve. However, we should rule out possible:
- cardiovascular event
- bad teeth
- Labyrinth syndrome
So, better get checked by your caring doctor first and run a series of diagnostic tests before deciding for the best treatment strategy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
