What Causes Recurring Dizziness, Nausea And Weakness In Legs?

I plan to take my daughter to her doctor either Monday or Tuesday when I can get an appontment, but I am wondering what these symptoms could mean. Headache for a week off and on, dizziness, nausea, and then today her legs started feelng like noodles, she can walk and they aren t weak, just feel like she has ran a long race. No fever that she can tell. My daughter is 18, and a college athlete, currently playong hockey.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have recurring dizziness, nausea and weakness in legs . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like soft tissue injury , hematoma , nerve injury or compression . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper diagnosis . Doctor may order CT scan , MRI along with nerve conduction test . Doctor may prescribe anti inflammatory along with nerve supplement and recommend physical therapy . Doctor may also recommend surgery in severe nerve damage . For now keep your leg elevated while sleeping and apply warm compresses several times a day .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
