Dizziness has diverse causes and meanings. We often associate it with inner ear issues, especially vertigo, which involves spinning sensations. However, lightheadedness and unsteadiness may arise from non-inner ear problems like blood pressure, cardiac conditions, nerve weakness, or central nervous system issues. Your primary care physician may see the need to refer you to an ENT, audiologist, or neurologist for treatment. Call our office to schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms.
