People who suffer from dizziness and vertigo often times say they experience anything from a 'rocking sensation' to 'things around them spinning.'
Interestingly, the feeling tends to feel more like objects are moving or spinning rather than the person who suffers from vertigo.
A lot of people brush the feeling off as some sort of common lightheadedness.
But the National Institute of Health reports that 40% of adults will deal with an episode of vertigo at least once.
According to studies of individuals with vertigo, it seems to strike women more often than men. Episodes tend to increase in frequency as we age.
An inner ear infection known as labyrinthitis is often associated with vertigo.
This is an inflammation of the inner ear and can cause vertigo and vomiting. The labyrinths, or canals of the inner ear are filled with fluid.
Within the fluid are tiny hairs that send impulses to the brain. The brain uses this information to identify your body's orientation.
Then the world starts moving, at least that is the perception to the sufferer.
This illness often goes undiagnosed and therefore untreated, but can cause unpleasant, even disturbing episodes for the person suffering with it.
The reason vertigo is so often untreated is because typically the symptoms will vanish on their own within a relatively short period of time, sometimes in just a few days.
Eventually, the problem will present itself again.
Many times the person suffering with the dizzy spells doesn't even relate the episodes together, dismissing one as being too fatigued, perhaps the next one as being associated with a severe headache.
As a result, the condition can go on for quite some time before a pattern of repeated episodes is recognized. The treatment most often prescribed is medication, typically meclizine.
You may be more familiar with some of the brand names, such as Bonine, Antivert, or Dramamine.
Of course with medications come side effects and other potential problems.
What most people don't know, and something that most doctors don't tell you, is that there could be another cause for your vertigo. Something besides an inner ear infection.
Tension can be the culprit as it is with some many other conditions.
Feeling dizzy or experiencing vertigo can be the result of muscle tension around the ears and/or eyes as well as the body line that extends to the pelvic bone.
