Homeopathic Medicine For Vertigo
Vertigo refers to the sensation of spinning or dizziness that can make you feel like you or your surroundings are moving when they are not. This feeling of imbalance can be mild or severe and may be accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, sweating, or difficulty walking.
There are various potential causes of vertigo, and they can be broadly categorized into peripheral and central causes:
Peripheral causes: These involve issues with the inner ear, which is responsible for balance. Conditions such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular neuritis, and Meniere’s disease fall into this category.
Central causes: These involve problems with the central nervous system, particularly the brain. Examples include migraines, tumors, or disorders affecting the brainstem.
