Vertigo (Dizziness) – 6 Common

Introduction

Vertigo is not just “lightheadedness.
It feels like the room is spinning — because the balance system inside the inner ear is disturbed.

Netter’s Anatomy shows that the semicircular canals contain fluid that controls body balance. Any disturbance leads to vertigo.

Common Causes of Vertigo (Age 25–45)

1. Inner Ear Crystal Displacement (BPPV)

Small calcium crystals shift → dizziness when you move your head.

2. Vitamin D & B12 Deficiency

Low levels affect nerves → dizziness, fatigue.

3. Cervical (Neck) Vertigo

Poor posture compresses neck nerves → imbalance.

4. Inner Ear Infection

Viral or bacterial infection → sudden spinning sensation.

5. Low Blood Pressure

Standing up quickly → drop in BP → lightheadedness.

6. Anxiety & Panic Episodes

Breathing imbalance → dizziness feeling.
