As per your query vertigo along with dizziness can occur due to many reasons like middle ear infection , Meniere's disease. You should not ignore this , because sometimes the condition get complicated. i would suggest you to start with antibiotics, steroids , antiemetic drugs and labrynthine sedatives for 5 to 7 weeks. you should go for vestibular rehabilitation exercises. You should consult with your ENT specialist and get evaluated. Doctor may order audiometry test and tuning fork test and treat it accordingly. Avoid touching and pricking it with any sharp object , drink green tea with ginger , which act as antiemetic , do exercises like yoga and meditation and try to make yourself stress free .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
