Vertigo

A Chiropractor In Vernon Hills Can Help With Your Vertigo

Vertigo is a symptom that people feel as a result of some type of medical problem. People who experience it may feel like they are moving, spinning, or swaying when they are not. Sometimes, they may feel as if the objects or setting around them are moving. Vertigo is frequently associated with other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, dizziness, sweating, headaches, and double vision.

What Causes Vertigo

Typically, vertigo is the symptom of an underlying disease. Common medical problems that result in vertigo include Meniere's disease, acute peripheral vestibulopathy, strokes, labyrinthitis, brain injury, brain tumors, and multiple sclerosis.

While having vertigo isn't always a sign of a chronic medical condition, it can be. It's best to consult with a doctor if you experience vertigo regularly.

Classifications of Vertigo

Vertigo is classified into two categories: central and peripheral. In central vertigo, the imbalance stems from the central nervous system (CNS). In peripheral vertigo, a problem occurs in the ear. Vertigo can also be categorized as objective and subjective, depending on whether the environment is moving.

Symptoms

A change in the position of your head often triggers vertigo, which produces a feeling of:

  • Swaying
  • Tilting
  • Spinning
  • Dizziness
  • Lack of balance
  • Being pulled to one direction

Other symptoms include:

  • Sweating
  • Ringing in the ears or hearing loss
  • Abnormal or jerking eye movements (nystagmus)
  • Feeling nauseated
  • Vomiting
  • Lack of balance

How Vertigo is Addressed

If you are regularly experiencing vertigo, then tests will be done to determine the root cause of vertigo. Testing can be performed by our licensed chiropractors, sometimes in the form of physical evaluations, CT scans, X-rays, or similar exams. The goal of these tests is to evaluate your vertigo and to explore any possible causes of the symptom. Once a cause is diagnosed, you can then be treated. Our chiropractors will present you with the best treatment option available to eliminate vertigo and its root cause.
