Dizziness is simply expressed as 'dizzy', but its pattern varies from person to person. Typical symptoms include the feeling of head spinning, the feeling of leaning, the symptoms of blurring in front of your eyes and instantaneous daze, or the feeling of the ground being turned off. This dizziness makes it difficult to balance when standing or walking, and in severe cases can lead to falls.
In particular, dizziness occurs more easily in spring as rapid temperature changes and air pressure differences during the change of seasons affect the autonomic nervous system, blood vessels, and vestibular organs responsible for the sense of balance.
Lee Bit-na, director of the Brain Neurology Center at Nanuri Hospital in Incheon, explained, `As the seasons change, the autonomic nervous system involved in body temperature control and blood pressure maintenance becomes more sensitive than usual.' `These changes increase the sensitivity of the vestibular organs, and even mild stimuli can lead to severe dizziness.'
There are various causes of dizziness. The most common cause is otolithiasis, a disease that disrupts the sense of balance as the ear stone, located in the vestibular organ inside the ear, goes out of place. I suddenly turned my head or lay down It causes short, strong rotational dizziness when it occurs. Meniere's disease is caused by abnormalities in the internal lymph fluid, accompanied by tinnitus and hearing loss in addition to dizziness. In addition, orthostatic hypotension, migraines, and dizziness can occur even in the early stages of a stroke.
Accurate diagnosis requires the treatment of a neurologist. The cause of dizziness can be identified through hearing tests, vestibular function tests, and brain MRI, and the direction of treatment varies depending on the diagnosis results.
Lee Bit-na, the chief, "In the case of diverticulosis, it can be improved quickly with vestibular re-positioning through physical therapy. On the other hand, if Meniere's disease or central nervous system disease is the cause, more precise diagnosis, constant drug treatment, and lifestyle improvement are needed.
Particular attention is needed for middle-aged people.
Lee Bitna hyperbole could be a sign of cerebrovascular disease if dizziness is repeated, and if there are accompanying neurological symptoms"If speech impairment, loss of strength in the arms or legs, and facial sensory abnormalities are present together, immediate neurological treatment is required."
Sufficient sleep, water intake, regular diet and exercise, and stress management are important to prevent and alleviate dizziness. In particular, it is recommended to avoid sudden posture changes along with body temperature management during times when the daily temperature range is large, such as spring.
Above all, if dizziness persists or repeats for more than two to three days, you must seek medical attention from a specialist. This is because there are cases where neurological disease progresses after passing it over as simple fatigue.
