The causes of dizziness may be endless, but when you have a problem with your inner ear you have dizziness called vertigo. Compared to other types of dizziness, which makes you feel light-headed,
vertigo makes you feel the world spins around you.
Vertigo is more like a symptom and not a condition. It’s the feeling that you or the items around you start moving around you whenyou aren’t. This feeling may be almost unnoticeable and will not interfere with your life. But it may also be so severe that you’ll find it hard to focus on your everyday tasks.
They usually develop suddenly and don’t last long, but severe cases are also possible. If it is severe, the symptoms may last for days, making your life extremely difficult. Besides dizziness, vertigo may also cause loss of balance or the feeling of being sick. People with vertigo will find it hard to stand and walk.
