vertigo information

Vertigo is not “your average dizzy spell.” In contrast to dizziness, which is characterized by temporary feelings of imbalance or unsteadiness, vertigo is the false sensation of movement. Vertigo often causes you to feel as if the room is spinning around you, or as if you are spinning around the room. Vertigo becomes worse with head movement and may be relieved by lying down. Vertigo usually occurs suddenly and may be accompanied by stumbling or falling, hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ear), vision disturbances, or symptoms of nausea or vomiting. An episode of vertigo may last from seconds to hours, or even several days.
