Vertigo: impaired coordination of movements

Vertigo, impaired coordination of movements and work of the vestibular apparatus. Although often we take for him a completely different feeling. How to distinguish genuine dizziness from false and why we are dizzy? Doctors have several ways to distinguish between true and imaginary dizziness: attempts to balance, observe the involuntary movement of eyeballs, audiometry. But it's easy to do it yourself.

If you feel the illusion of your own movement or the movement of surrounding objects (more often in the form of rotation), and you are disturbed by the orientation in space, then you are dizzy. And the reasons that caused them can be serious.

In the cervical region, the vertebral arteries pass, which, when osteochondrosis, are compressed, the work of the vestibular apparatus worsens, and dizziness appears. Also, from the muscles of the neck, the nerves "transmit" information about the position of the body, and in the brain it must coincide with the data obtained from the vestibular apparatus. If the brain does not fix the signals at the same time, dizziness may occur. Especially suffer from this are people whose neck muscles are always strained due to sedentary work or those who are weak and weak. Do an ultrasound to determine if the arteries are clogged. If there is no exacerbation, you can massage the collar zone.

If dizziness coincides with partial loss of hearing (unilateral) and nausea, it may be the consequences of Ménière's disease or dropsy of the inner ear. With her in the vestibular apparatus, the amount of endolymph increases and the pressure rises. This is often after a viral infection. The diagnosis is easily confirmed by electrochlear. Manière's disease is treated with drugs and acupuncture.

Dizziness often occurs with increased pressure due to spasm of the brain vessels. This problem often occurs after 45 years, so if during dizziness pressure is increased, do ultrasound of the vessels and consult a neurologist or cardiologist. Also, dizziness can occur with a sharp turn of the head. Such seizures last for several minutes, their causes are not fully understood, but if you train the vestibular apparatus, then their probability is very small. If you get dizzy with fast driving, and this is accompanied by nausea and sweating, it means that as a result of the asynchronous activity of the vestibular apparatus and the brain, you are sick. Increase the panoramic view (sit in the front seat) or drink before the trip preparations against motion sickness.

If it seems to you that you are losing consciousness, you have weakness, nausea, dark in the eyes, then you are likely to have a premature condition due to a decrease in the flow to the brain of oxygen or lack of glucose. If you are shaking, your hands are shaking and your perception of heat and cold is disturbed, then you may have an imbalance and orientation, which can occur with head injuries, brain tumors, sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. If such conditions repeat, it is necessary to pass the examination with a neurologist.

Please note, if you are constantly worried about headaches, you need to look for the problem not in depression, but in the body itself. After all, sometimes headaches can be the reason not only lack of sleep, but also any diseases, especially on the nerves. Therefore, before engaging in self-medication, you should definitely go to the doctor's office, which will tell you how and what to do correctly. Do not self-medicate, it can be wrong and extremely dangerous.
