Dizziness and dizziness in neurology

Dizziness and vertigo are common symptoms in neurology and may be caused by a variety of reasons, including inner ear diseases, brain lesions, cervical spine problems, anemia, etc. Treatment requires careful diagnosis and treatment of the cause, and drugs such as flunarizine hydrochloride, betahistine hydrochloride, and nicergoline may be used to relieve symptoms.

1. The main causes of dizziness and vertigo

1. Inner ear problems: such as Meniere's disease or vestibular neuritis, which affects the fluid balance in the inner ear, leading to vertigo.

2. Brain diseases: including cerebral infarction, cerebellar lesions, etc., which affect the brain's ability to process balance signals.

3. Cervical vertebra problems: Long-term improper posture or poor sleeping posture can lead to cervical vertebra hyperplasia, which in turn affects the blood supply to the brain.

4. Anemia: The oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood decreases, leading to dizziness.

5. Other causes: including high blood pressure, hypotension, neurological diseases, etc.

2. Treatment strategy

Drug treatment is the key. For example, flunarizine hydrochloride can improve dizziness caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain; betahistine hydrochloride is suitable for Meniere's disease and Sequelae of cerebral vascular embolism; nicergoline is used for symptoms such as residual hemiplegia after cerebral infarction.

In addition to drug treatment, patients should also pay attention to rest, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid overexertion.

For specific causes, such as cervical spine problems, physical therapy such as traction, massage, etc. may be required.

Although dizziness and vertigo are common, the causes behind them are complicated and require careful diagnosis by a professional doctor. After discovering symptoms, patients should seek medical treatment promptly and follow the doctor's instructions for scientific treatment.
