Vertigo/Dizziness
Advanced Vertigo/Dizziness
Vertigo and Dizziness are common conditions that create a sensation of spinning, imbalance, or lightheadedness. These symptoms are often linked to disorders of the inner ear, which plays a vital role in maintaining balance. Although vertigo is not a disease itself, it is a symptom of an underlying condition that requires proper evaluation and treatment.
