What’s the matter with dizziness?

There are a number of causes that can lead to recurrent episodes of dizziness in patients in Western medicine. The first one is cerebral insufficiency, which occurs mostly in middle-aged and elderly people, who usually have risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. The cause of the disease is the narrowing of the cerebral arteries. The second disease to be considered is cervical spondylosis, because the vertebral artery is passing through the cervical spine, when the intervertebral foramen of cervical spondylosis is narrowed, especially when the patient turns his head, it will compress the blood vessels, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain and dizziness attacks. The third disease to be considered is otolithosis, which is caused by the dislodgement of an otolith. Recurrent episodes of dizziness occur when the head position is changed, and the dizziness lasts for a short period of time. The fourth disease to be considered is vestibular paroxysm, in which the patient has recurrent episodes of dizziness, and it is recommended to visit the hospital promptly to identify the cause and treat it.
