Disease Description

 
 
Vertigo is a type of dizziness, where there is a sensation of spinning while stationary. The
symptoms are due to a dysfunction of the vestibular system in the inner ear. It is often associated
with nausea and vomiting, unsteadiness, and excessive perspiration, as well as difficulties
standing or walking. Blurred vision, difficulty in speaking, a lowered level of consciousness, and
hearing loss may also occur. Central nervous system disorders may lead to permanent symptoms.
 
There are three types of vertigo: objective − subjects are moving around the patient; subjective −
patient feels as if moving himself; pseudo vertigo − intensive sensation of rotation inside the
patient's head.
 
The most common causes are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, concussion and vestibular
migraine while less common causes include Ménière's disease and vestibular neuritis. Excessive
consumption of alcoholic beverages can also cause notorious symptoms of vertigo.
 
Vertigo is a frequent symptom in the general population. Its prevalence rises with age and is
about two to three times higher in women than in men. It accounts for about 2-3 % of emergency
department visits.
