What is Vertigo? - 0 views

  •  
    Vertigo is not a disease rather a symptom. It gives false feelings of movement or spinning and it is associated with dizziness. Although, vertigo is a part of the dizziness but all dizziness is not vertigo. It occurs because of the disturbance of balance or equilibrium. When there is a sensation of movement, it is called subjective vertigo and perception of movement in objects is called objective vertigo.

7 Most Common Vertigo and Dizziness Causes | The Diabetes Club - 0 views

  •  
    Being dizzy and feeling vertigo is one of the worst feelings in the world. I know because I have been there. The good news is that most episodes of dizziness are harmless. Vertigo and dizziness causes can be due either to a temporary reduction of the blood pressure to the brain or to a change in the pressure of the fluid in the inner ear. In my case, surgery took care of the problem I had in my inner ear.

Hoe behandelen we evenwichtsstoornissen? - 0 views

  •  
    Ruim één half miljoen landgenoten kampt geregeld met duizeligheid en ernstige evenwichtsstoornissen. Gelukkig is deze aandoening zéker niet levensbedreigend, maar wie er geregeld mee wordt geconfronteerd, moet wel heel wat aan levenskwaliteit inboeten. Wat zijn nu precies de oorzaken van deze aandoening en hoe kan er aan verholpen worden? Duizeligheid en evenwichtsstoornissen kunnen veroorzaakt worden door de ziekte van Ménière, door de ontsteking van de kanaaltjes van ons binnenoor en door BPPV, dat staat voor Benigine Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, dat meestal voorkomt op middelbare leeftijd.
