    Vertigo: Understanding the Spinning Feeling and How Moolchand Can Help

    Dr. Shivali Agrawal

    Have you ever felt like the room is spinning around you, even when you are standing still? That feeling is called vertigo. It is not just normal dizziness—it is a condition that affects your balance and can make everyday life difficult.

    At Moolchand, we know how worrying vertigo can be. That’s why we bring together superb physicians, cutting-edge technology, and a tradition of compassionate care, integrity, and affordable prices to make sure you get the best treatment possible.

    What is Vertigo?

    Vertigo makes you feel like you, or everything around you, is moving or spinning. It may last for just a few seconds or continue for hours. Some people feel it only when they move their head in a certain way, while others may have repeated episodes that affect their work, travel, and daily activities.

    Why Does Vertigo Happen?

    Vertigo usually happens because of problems in the inner ear, which controls our sense of balance. Sometimes, it may also be related to the brain.

    Here are the most common causes:

    • BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo): Tiny crystals in the ear move into the wrong place, causing short but strong spinning sensations.

    • Ménière’s Disease: Extra fluid in the inner ear causes vertigo, hearing loss, and ringing in the ears.

    • Ear Infections (Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis): These can cause sudden and severe vertigo with nausea.

    • Migraine-related Vertigo: Some people with migraines also feel vertigo, even without a headache.

    • Other Health Conditions: Stroke, multiple sclerosis, or rarely, a brain tumor can also cause vertigo.

    Symptoms of Vertigo

    If you have vertigo, you may notice:

    • Spinning or swaying feeling

    • Trouble keeping balance

    • Nausea or vomiting

    • Ringing in the ears or hearing loss

    • Headaches or pressure in the head

    • Jerky eye movements (nystagmus)

    If these symptoms keep coming back or are very strong, you should see a doctor.

    How We Diagnose Vertigo at Moolchand

    At Moolchand, our superb physicians carefully check each patient to find the real cause of vertigo. We use cutting-edge technology to get an accurate diagnosis:

    • Hearing and balance tests to check inner ear function

    • Video tests (VNG) to track eye movements linked to dizziness

    • MRI and CT scans if brain-related causes are suspected

    We explain every test clearly so that you feel comfortable and informed.

    Treatment Options

    The good news is that most types of vertigo can be treated. At Moolchand, treatment plans are designed to suit each patient’s needs.

    Common treatments include:

    • Simple Head Exercises (Epley’s Maneuver): Helpful for BPPV; can give quick relief by Doctor.

    • Medicines: To reduce nausea, treat inner ear swelling, or control fluid buildup.

    • Diet and Lifestyle Changes: Lowering salt intake, reducing stress, and staying hydrated help in conditions like Ménière’s disease.

    • Balance Exercises (Vestibular Rehabilitation): Special exercises that improve stability and reduce dizziness.

    • Migraine Treatment: Medicines and lifestyle advice for those with migraine-related vertigo.

    • Surgery: Very rare, used only if nothing else helps.

    Our doctors always focus on safe, effective, and honest treatments. With our value of integrity, we never suggest unnecessary tests or procedures.

    Living with Vertigo: Tips for Patients

    • Get up slowly from bed or while standing.

    • Avoid sudden head movements.

    • Sleep with your head raised slightly.

    • Drink enough water every day.

    • Manage stress with yoga, meditation, or relaxation techniques.

    • Follow your doctor’s advice on exercises.

    These small steps can reduce vertigo episodes and improve daily life.
